Ann, you just triggered a great memory for me growing up in NYC and my Mom
listening to John Gamblilng  on the radio in the morning all the while
hurrying us up and out the door for school...his playing of the Teddy Bear's
picnic was my favorite song as a child....do you by any chance remember any
of the words to it......(if you go down in the woods today, you're in for a
big surprise....today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic...that's
all I remember so many years later)....Joan Hartman
