Memorial Day Montage

Back in January I finally finished converting all of our family VHS tapes to WMV files. Since then, I have been sporadically going through the hours of footage and clipping together a little montage video. For quite a few years in a row, our family (well the family on Dad's side) would get together at our house for Memorial Day. This montage has clips from 1990, 91, 93, and 95. It's 35MB if you watch it with the embedded video below. If you are on a slower connection, I also uploaded it to Vimeo which might work a little better. (Vimeo is kind of like YouTube but they allow longer videos.)

If you want to skip the random family stuff and just see proof that I was a geek from very early on, skip ahead to 5:41 in the video.

Thanks for putting that together Ben! I had a good laugh and did a lot of remembering. Thanks for brightening my day. You and Ryan crack me up!

OMG that clip at 5:14 is from 1993.  I was a year removed from high school.  I'm friggen old.

That was lots of fun to watch, even though I wasn't in it!

Hey! We should look for a few more "amazing feats of science"! OK, maybe not. Good memories though...

Too funny.  I just loved the Amazing Feats of Science.  I remember the giant Turtles too.  :)
