CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 23/09/2026It is Day Two of my birthday, and how good of the Lucas Museum to open just for the occasion! 110
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 22/09/2026No birthday is complete without a piece of birthday cake! 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Picking up my birthday lunch with Cameron today, and I feel like a King! 470
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 10/09/2026I have heard that the red cups tend to meet a grisly fate within the first ten minutes… 021
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Spotted a rainbow over the last two remaining ticket booths on the east side of the Esplanade at the #Disneyland Resort tonight… 081
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 06/09/2026And this is what I am currently up to. Tonight is the Founding Member Opening Party for the new Lucas Museum of Narrative Arts. I am very happy to be here. 020
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 05/09/2026On line, you say? Thirty years ago at Disneyland? dapsmagic.com/2026/04/disn...dapsmagic.comDisneyland Goes Online - 30 Years Ago at DisneylandIn this month's 30 Years Ago at Disneyland, Doug takes a fun look back at the origins of Disneyland online in 1996. 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 31/08/2026I was walking out of Disneyland tonight, and there she was. Just standing there. So, of course, I had to get a photo… 180
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 28/08/2026And how cool to see a shout out about that “entire mechanical metal suit” that has misled generations of AA nerds inho believing this was how they did it. Some of the first generation Imagineers told me years ago that it was a flop, but looked great on TV! 120
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Thanks to social media friends who were posting photos, I was reminded of the partial lunar eclipse tonight. I had a clear view of it from out in the yard and it looked great! I even managed to grab a couple of photos with my iPhone… #LunarEclipse 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I once wrote that something had happened “atomically,” so… it could have been worse. 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Based on the exact time frame, it looks to me that this was influenced by (or influenced) the unrealized Burbank Entertainment Center. 080
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Thirty years ago at Disneyland? That has a nice ring to it. 110
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Where else would I be for the 71st birthday (really, 71) of Disneyland? 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 15/07/2026This seems as good a day as any to remind everyone that it is not illegal to criticize the President of the United States, or to criticize the policies of their Administration. You may even do so using the strongest possible language. 919157
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I also managed to get my own shot of the three of them, along with Disneyland Ambassador Robyn Schatz. 020
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I don’t remember seeing Renie Bardeau that day, but I certainly remember Space Mickey… 120
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 12/06/2026Such sad news today that we have lost our dear Tinker Bell, Margaret Kerry. Back in 2002 she kindly invited me to escort her to the premiere of Return to Neverland. Thank you Margaret, for the friendship, the fun, and all that pixie dust! We will be looking at that second star to the right tonight. 040
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 29/05/2026I understand their playlist was rather limited, although Grampaw is working on a new song with words that rhyme with “clump” and “dump” and “rump.” 020
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 29/05/2026I am kind of baffled at the comments expressing anguish over “losing” the original CoP. That ship sailed long ago, when the “four seasons” update with new narrator and song was created. I like all the versions, even though “Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” is my clear choice. Happy to see this update. 130
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 29/05/2026Has anyone else here heard about the One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band declining to perform at the Freedom 250 Concert on the National Mall? 120
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 20/05/2026A very happy 85th birthday to original Mouseketeer Bobby Burgess! In January of 2001 I had the pleasure of serving as one of the volunteers at Walt Disney’s Carolwood barn as Bobby made a personal appearance, greeting fans and posing for pictures. 020
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Winnie the Pooh was first published 100 years ago! These rather dog-eared copies I am sharing were purchased nearly twenty years ago at an estate sale in Flintridge. Can you make out the name stamped on the inside covers? Oliver M. Johnston, Jr. (Yes, that would be Ollie, to his many admirers!) 151
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 05/05/2026How can he run when clearly, he’s from France? 020
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 05/05/2026May the Fourth be with you! If you are the owner of one of these posters, it was personally handled by my late wife. Her father was one of the founding staff of NPR. Her first job as an intern included rolling, packing and shipping every single one of these that a listener wrote in and requested. 371
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 17/03/2026A happy St. Patrick’s Day to you, from the social media team at Walt Disney World, who inadvertently created a new mascot(?) I find absolutely terrifying (or at the least, unsettling). 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Ah. So THREE versions of Jack but no room for Shock. 110
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Who missed the memo on this one? What good is #192 Lock and #193 Barrel without Shock?!? In an assortment of ten there’s room for just one girl (Sally)? And who is Pajama Jack??? 150
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 18/02/2026Tori and Kelsey and Bobbie were signing books at Walt’s barn on Sunday. Tori mentioned that Archives was very interested in their photos of the Palm Springs WED house, as it was almost completely undocumented. 140
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 08/02/2026And here I am today, 25 years later, once again opening Disney California Adventure. The park and I have barely changed… 030
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 08/02/2026This is where I was 25 years ago this morning… among the first 30 paying guests at the brand new Disney’s California Adventure park! 171
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 08/02/2026This is where I was 25 years ago tonight, looking across the esplanade from #Disneyland park on the freezing cold night before the opening of Disney’s California Adventure. 063
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Apparently, today is the day we all post our photos with Josh D’Amaro. I have added an Easter Egg to mine. Have you found where Josh left his signature in the EnginearEar Souvenirs shop? 150
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 27/01/2026I was headed to my favorite TV watching chair, only to find… “Look at me. I am the captain now.” 010
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 12/01/202625 years ago TODAY Downtown Disney officially opened at the new #Disneyland Resort. California Adventure and the Grand Californian would follow on February 8. Here is my article about the opening days of DtD over at DapsMagic. dapsmagic.com/2026/01/down...dapsmagic.comDowntown Disney Celebrates 25 Years as a Part of the Disneyland ResortDoug shares a photo-intensive look back at the opening of Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort, 25 years later. 4363
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 12/01/2026You’ve just gotta be sure you’re there when they are opened. (If a frog leaps out and starts singin’ and dancin’, just leave it be.) 020
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 12/01/2026Cat rescue at Disneyland! While parking, I saw a galloping little critter in my passenger mirror. Just as I realized it was a cat, it leaped sideways into a fence, and tumbled under the cars behind me. She performed the same stunt a couple more times until… she was coaxed out and brought in! Whew! 060
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 12/01/2026Ahem… (Granted, this is at DCA, part of the Disneyland RESORT.) 140
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 12/01/2026Don’t feel bad if you haven’t taken your tree down yet. This was at #Disneyland today… 1171
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 01/01/2026I am seeing out 2025 in the Upsidedown! With Cam for the final episode of Stranger Things at the Spectrum Center Regal. 000
CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 25/12/2025Merry Christmas to all from the Happiest Place on Earth! (Sharing an image from the cover of a vintage Union Pacific Railroad Disneyland souvenir songbook.) 030

CallDougMarsh @calldougmarsh.bsky.social · 13/12/2025You will be seeing a lot of vintage photos of Dick van Dyke today, as he celebrates his 100th birthday. Here he is, mugging for the camera with one of his co-stars from Lt. Robin Crusoe, U.S.N. (1966). Happy birthday! 030
