KETC & Vacation Nap Time

Taking a week away from regular posts with family visiting from out of town and a short mini-vacation to St. Louis, I wanted to take a few minutes to express my appreciation for KETC -- the Public Television station out of St. Louis.

While my family and I enjoyed some of the fun sites to see in St. Louis, returning to the hotel room for afternoon nap time was a necessity. Yesterday, on the last day of our trip, we returned to our room with lunch just before 12:30. As we switched on the television, this daddy was surprised to hear some familiar words:

"The people who gave the money to make Mister Rogers' Neighborhood are the people of this and other public television stations and the Sears-Roebuck Foundation."


Needless to say we enjoyed our lunch while watching Episode 1578.

Thank you, KETC, for keeping Mister Rogers' Neighborhood in your schedule -- and not in the wee hours of the morning, but in the heart of the afternoon.
