I remember when the Wenatchee Apple Blossom festival got DeForest Kelley (Dr. Bones McCoy of Star Trek) as the festival parade grand marshal in 1968. I was only 5 yrs old but I can remember how excited my family and the town were as he drove by us on Wenatchee avenue.

I was 8 years old when this film was made. We lived near Naches in the upper Yakima Valley. We had a small orchard of peaches. Our neighbors all grew apples. I remember the smudge pots in the early spring (blackened nostrils!) and the yellow sulfur spray later on (phew!). When I grew up and moved to Seattle to work, it was a shock to actually pay for apples, cherries and peaches.

When we were kids in Margate, NJ, our school principal, Mr. William Mosca, showed this to us every single year. I'm not sure how it started, but it became a school tradition. By the time that Mr. Mosca retired, the film was so worn and spliced that it could hardly be played.

I was born in Wenatchee but partied a lot on the Jersey shore in my 20s and 30s. So much fun and a completely different planet from North central Washington! Avalon, Wildwood and Ocean City were great back then.
