Everyone sits in a circle. One person starts the game by saying, When I went to the moon, I packed. Each person adds something and repeats what all the people before him have said. If a person can't remember all the things in the right order, or if they take too long to answer, then they are out.

Good luck. When I went to the moon, I brought my sneakers. When I went to the moon, I brought my toes and her sneakers. Oh, you've got to say hers first. I do? Yeah. Bye-bye.

But when you send for a Zoom card, make sure you include a SASE. That's a self-addressed stamped envelope. After I get in my bed, I look around and shake my head. There's no one going to fill me with lead.

There's no wolf man under my bed. there's no great big vampire that seems to get higher and higher there's nothing harmful in my room there's not going to be a big boom I looked around and in my head I said I think I'll hop right back in bed and then from under the covers I took a peek and then and there I fell asleep nighty night you got the steering line off? yeah my name is Johnny Elderton and I'm from Brownsville, Texas alright, get your spring on my father has a shrimp boat and once in a while I go out with him in the winters and

And in the summer, I go out almost all summer long to help them out. Okay, it's all clear. Okay. Usually we start off early in the mornings, real early, and we go out toward deep water. This is a great big area where a lot of other shrimp boats do the same as we do. Some do even better and some do worse. This year, everybody's been hard and they've been griping about not catching nothing. Some people, they're so hard up that they have to leave their boats. They have to tie them up and go on other boats so that they can make the payment. First off, after we're already going out, my job is to get the nets ready. And keep all my ropes straight. And every time I go out with my father on the shrimp book, I get a little bit more advanced. I'm going out with them now so I can find the experience

so I can have it by the time I really need it. I'm in charge of the galley. Well, that's a kitchen or a shrimp boat. It's good for me to get experience because I'm not one who takes homemaking in school. Well, you're doing a little better when you're cooking anyway. That's the first compliment Compliment in I don't know how long from you. Oh, yeah, the other day in the car. Might be the last compliment, too. As soon as we get through there, we'll start getting them rigs ready. Right. Or we'll make something. Another, another, another draw a run. My dad will let down the outriggers. Get your wrench ready. And I'll be the one who'll be tying them off. He's taught me everything that I know.

See, because sometimes I do things wrong, but he stops me and he corrects me, because he wants me to help him out as much as I can. All right, say I'm wrong now. All right. Her nets are 40 feet long. Yeah. Just before the nets, you have the doors, which the nets are connected to. After the doors reach the bottom of the ocean, it opens up the nets. The shrimp, they're so lazy that they're not aware of what's going on. So all you have to do is just drag the net by, and they'll just slide straight into it. We just don't sit around while we're dragging. We always have something else to do. And if we don't have nothing to do, we always find something to do. Well, in a way, I think I like it, not only because my father really needs me, but because I know more of what's going on and what he has to go through. The more you learn out here, the more you're going to do better when you get older.

Think you're going to fish there on the boat when you get bigger, or are you going to let me take it easy and you do the work? Oh, when I get about 16, I'll start taking it out. Might have to learn a little bit more than what you do right now, son. Well, so far I know how to steer it. I know how to bring the rigs up. I can learn to bring both sides up later on. When bringing up the nets and everything, you have to have enough string because the nets are usually wet and they're soggy. All right, Johnny, unhook. So you've got to be in pretty good shape so that you can shake the nets around and clean it up pretty good. I don't think shrimping is what you call a real good life, but to some people, they

might like it because that's what they've done all their life and that's the only thing that they probably know how to do. And when my father gets a little older and I get a little older, I'll probably want to take the boat out a couple of times to make me a few dollars and bring him a few. Doctor, why the man named his movie The Broken Arm? Gee, I don't know. Because he had a big cast. Are you sick? Okay, Red, I got something for you. I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do. Okay. I want you to pull this napkin apart. Everyday, ordinary paper napkin. Let's just twist it up, all right? Now try to pull it. All right. Come on, Red, you got muscles. What are these right here?

Come on, pull. Can I unwind it? No! Come on, pull. Pull. Pull. Harder. Harder. Give up? Yeah. Zoom phenomenon. Hold it. Zoom phenomenon. Instant strongman. Here we go. Pull. It's not fair. If you have a Zoom phenomenon and you'd like Zoom to know about it, just write Zoom and tell us about it. We just got a letter from Susan Smith of Bangor, Maine, and here's what she writes. Dear Zoom, why don't you have a rap about seasons? Which season do you like the best, and why do you like it? Okay, let's try it.

I like them all for different reasons, because I like the summer, because you're out of school, You can go mountain climbing and fishing and a lot of outdoor activities. In the wintertime, you can make snowballs and snow forests, everything. Sometimes, like the winter, then they get all that snow, and sometimes it gets snowed in, and you can't go to school, and the cars are all stomping and they check snowballs. But my favorite season is, you know, I really can't make up my mind because they all have something good about it that I like, especially the summer because that's when my birthday comes up. and then my birthday comes up in the winter sort of at the end of winter mine comes in the winter i like all the holidays i like the winter for one of the reasons it's because of all the holidays yeah thanksgiving christmas new year's yeah a lot of parties are in those times so we get vacation yeah the weatherman said that we that we wasn't going to have snow for christmas but big surprise surprise we had snow we were going to go to new york for christmas vacation and we got 80 miles out.

We were going something like 40 miles an hour, you know, getting there, and it was 80 miles, and there was snow coming at us like crazy, and my father said, if I get a hold of that weather guy, I'm going to kill him. What do the fish and bears do in the winter? Well, you probably hear. They are bears hibernating. I don't see how bears can sleep all winter. Well, sometimes, I think I read someplace in a book that they sometimes come out of their caves to get food. just that's really uh not not very often polar bears how about polar bears no they're out all season they excuse me they stay they stay where it's cold don't they yeah yeah that's why they have the white white uh protection what about wrong season yeah well it's um they blend with the color of the snow and they've also got oil for skin for hibernation like deers mostly they don't hibernate they just stay around all season they stay they stay around uh i think they they They come down, up from the mountains, they come down, into the valleys, stuff, rocks. We couldn't sleep all winter, that'd be terrible.

I'd like to keep waking up and get a drink of water. I see you have little white things in your head that bite. Doctor, what are they, what are they? Your teeth. Say, are you interested in photography? Well, so are Jennifer and Tim Stoke, who live in Maine. They are learning how to print and develop photographs from their older brother, John. John is teaching us how to develop and print pictures. We're making them into postcards for our friends. Which way is upside down for this? The darkroom's in the bathroom, because that's the only one that has a sink and can get it dark enough. It looks funny as a negative because everything that's light is dark and everything that's dark is light. Okay, now you can put the paper on.

And you can't have a regular light on because it'll expose the paper, so you have to have an orange light so you can see what you're doing. and then time the exposure for however dark it's going to be. Then you have to take it over and develop it. Push all the corners under the water. Some parts come up. It's coming in. Yeah, you can see it beginning to form. looks like somebody's drawing it it's almost all in now okay now should i switch it yep put it in the water and that'll wash the developer off use these tones this time the seagull's blurry yeah that's because he was flying when you took the picture i can see the piece of bread that you threw yeah i don't think you threw it far

enough the bread there's a seagull coming for a landing sure he's not taking off maybe i don't know we went to skudek to take most of the pictures skudek is part of acadian national park in maine the seagulls are very friendly there if you take some bread and you can throw it up in the air and they'll swoop down and catch it right in the air the squirrels they're real friendly they'll come right up and take food right out of your hand that's um from the piece of seaweed blowing around and around in the wind and it made a circle we took lots of pictures that day now we have to develop the negatives it's really pretty easy but

the hardest part is getting film on the real because you're in the dark so we practiced with some old film first with the light on the film's too big we had a race to see who could do it faster. I'm on. When we really do it with real film, we have to turn the lights off, but when we have the negatives in the tank, then you can turn the lights on again. We have to take the temperature of the developer to make sure that they're all around 68 degrees. The tank won't let any light in through any of the sides or the top, but you can still pour a developer in the tank next you have to put some water in so that no developer gets mixed with the fixer then you put the fixer in for about 10 minutes okay time's up then you pour that out and then you can take the negatives out because they won't get any darker

Then you rinse them in water for about half an hour and hang them up to dry. Then you can look at them and see what you got. Mine came out pretty good. How did yours come out? Okay. Here's my squirrel. I got a good picture of a squirrel. Who's that? That's John. No, it isn't. This is on your roll, John. Here's a little bit. Is that my roll? Yes. Here's your seaweed blowing in the sand, Jennifer. That one's good. I've got my starfish. You do? Can I see it? It's right there. Oh, yeah. What's that one? Hold it up to the light so I can see it. It's got your head in it. Yeah, it's a picture of a seagull up here. See it? No.

It's pretty small. Hold it up to the light. How come the starfish has white behind him? That's the shadow. It'll come out black when you print it. All the things that are white will come out black, and all the things that are black will come out white. Right about there, I think, is about as close as you can get. One seagull dropped a starfish, and we brought it home. It's a picture of John and Tim finding sea animals to put in the aquarium. I took that from up in a tree. Looks like a kelp was attached to that, too. Hey, Harvey, what's the big hurry? I'm late, I'm late, for a very important day Wait, relax, take it easy Slow down, you move too fast
