A photo taken on location from the first day of shooting the latest incarnation of Captain Kangaroo. 

We were fortunate enough to have a wonderful cross-section of variety artists join us that day and it never ceases to amaze me just how many talented people I've been lucky enough to meet and work with in my travels.

I deeply appreciate everyone who joined us and so generously shared both their time and their talents.
