    I endured sleet to the face for 3 miles to get a picture of the owl only to find out she passed in August. She was rescued years ago and raised by the loving rangers at Downs Park. She was beautiful Superb Owl. b458f3c2a72d627ab05a9ffe0b911f0f.jpg

    2/10/23 Wild card-This day in history: was the first ever gold record awarded for Chattanooga Choo Choo to drummer of the Glenn Miller Orchestra. So this is how my weird brain works…My photo is of the Selbyville Museum at the site of the historic train station. I learned that when Glenn Miller was playing music, trains were bringing vacationers to the Delaware shore by railroad. Selbyville was known for its strawberries until there was a blight in 1930s so that was no longer the draw. Around 1934, the Indian River Inlet bridge opened and Hwy 13 was finished. This made car travel preferable. The passenger rails closed around 1932.

    from onthisday.com:
    The 1st ever gold record was awarded to “Chattanooga Choo Choo” by the Glenn Miller Orchestra – this one was presented to the group’s drummer, Tex Beneke
    Historical Context
    The Glenn Miller Orchestra was one of the most popular acts in the United States pre-World War II. Led by Glenn Miller, the band had several hit songs, such as “In the Mood” (1941) and “Moonlight Serenade” (1939).

    One of these hits was “Chattanooga Choo Choo”, a song about a train ride from New York to Chattanooga in Tennessee. The song was released on August 7, 1941, and was an immediate success.

    from selbyville.delaware.gov:

    The Breakwater & Frankford Railroad arrived in Selbyville in 1872. To the North, beyond Stations in Frankford, Dagsboro, Millsboro, Stockley, the railroad connected at Georgetown with the Breakwater Junction Railroad. That railroad was completed in 1868 and connected to the port Town of Lewes with the railroad that had been built down the center of Delmarva.

    The Breakwater and Frankford was later extended southward from Selbyville to its southern terminus at Franklin City on the shores of Chincoteague Bay.

    Yabba-dabba-doo is done, Simpsons in the woody wagon stole your run! #socks Flying District Tacos

    Jennifer trivia: My Paw Paw used to take us to PakaSak in the Icee Mobile (woody wagon) to get Icees. I was the youngest and sat in the “Jennifer Seat” which was the armrest pulled down on the bench frontseat next to my Paw Paw. This was around 1967 when the Flintstones were on Saturday morning cartoons. “was originally broadcast on ABC from September 30, 1960, to April 1, 1966, and was the first animated series to hold a prime-time slot on television.[2]” per Wikipedia
