Please Tiptoe through the Tulips with Toots! :)

This is my grandma Toots (her nickname) circa 1967 in the Skagit Valley, Washington tulip fields. She and my grandpa were here on a visit from Michigan where they lived.

She had a sense of humor/humour so I'm sure she would appreciate this video clip from the same era of the wonderful Tiny Tim and his performance on the Rowan and Martin's Laugh In show with Dick Martin. I think this aired outside the USA so hopefully some of you might remember it too. (Cameo appearances by Judy Carne and Goldie Hawn.)

Listen here: Tiptoe Through the Tulips

Isn't it funny Norm? It seems like a million years ago and also just like yesterday.

Memories, memories, memories :-) I used to watch all the Rowan and Martin's Laugh In shows :-) And, I can't believe that Tiny Tim's record was released some 43 years ago....really does seem like just yesterday :-) A brilliant and such an entertaining entry to 'Soundtrack to Life'. I shall now be humming this song all evening. Not in a high pitched tone though.......don't want to upset the puss cat :-) A faved combination and thank you for posting , Karen :-)
