damelon - when i was growing up channel 56 would play music before coming on with th etv stuff. each morning they played city of new orleans. (arlo's version)

i especially remember this during snow days - watching all the school closings near boston. we had to get local school closings in nh either from channel 9 , the radio or calling the school.

of course i had a heads up before that. my dad was a dumptruck driver for a construction crew. in the winter he would drive the sand truck behind the snowplow.

so sometimes around 1 am i would be awoken and told to shovel the drive so dad could get to work.

then a few hours later mom would wake me up to reshovel for her.

i have been blessed to see both arlo guthrie and willie nelson do that song live.

so thank you for that memory...
