And I remember the moon landing too. (I was pretty naive though...thought if I used my brother's telescope out in our back yard, I would be able to see the American flag waving on the moon.)

I'm going to have to listen to it again when I'm not so tired, I'm trying to adjust to this crazy time change I think. <br /><br />Ahhh yes, the man in the moon, then I believed the moon was made of cheese. Do you remember those old radios? I remember when I was quite young I always wanted to get into the back of my grandma's radio and play with the little men in there, you know the ones who were singing? :-) Ahhhh thanks for the trip down memory lane, and to think that one photo of the moon could bring up all of this conversation and jar your childhood memories. A wonderful photo of the moon that is. :-)darlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04886502544010479581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-84902977963086892872010-11-11T01:52:59.305-05:002010-11-11T01:52:59.305-05:00@julia - gracias !
