November 1958...It was a simpler time...

Rushford Lake NY, would have been before Thanksgiving...They drain the lake every Fall [dam]; I'm standing below the dock, where the water usually is...The "High Dive" dock is right behind me...And there's my Beagle, "Lady"...Wow...

Ah, the halcyon days of youth...

Calibrator hadn't checked the thread lately and missed my posts...He sent me some links to YouTube videos of his red Mattel "M3" and the black drum-Thompson toy I'm holding in my pic...

Kinda funny...One is labeled as the "first Mattel commercial shown on The Mickey Mouse Club"...

My Mattel Burp is also shown as selling for $3.00 or $2.50 in the videos...
