To all those who have a suitcase in your hands right now holding the remnants of a life you thought you’d live… I see you. You are not alone. And you will find a way forward, I promise. 💜 - What did Walt Disney do when he’d lost everything?  He started over.  When he was sitting alone in a cold, empty office eating beans out of a can because the business he’d created had failed When the character he’d believed to be his big break was ripped away When friends and colleagues betrayed him again and again and again. He had every justification to give up.  to sit down and say  the loss is too great The pain is too real The hope is all lost.  We sing catchy songs about Walt having a suitcase and a dream but when everything you own is in a bag in your hand it looks more like a nightmare.  But every step forward you take  while clutching remnants of the life you thought you’d have is brave  is defining  because you can’t coast into a new life  you are birthed into it  and the pain of surrender will be what builds your home  the ashes of what was  are not swept away but built upon  as you set down your suitcase on the floor of your new life  because you finally learned to let go. -kg #waltdisney #walt #californiafires #disneyparks #disneyland #hopecore #disney #california #californiaadventure #startingover #lettinggo #disneyhistory #disneylife #disneylove #disneystories #hope #change #inprocess #loss #disneypark #disneycreator #disneylandresort #disneyscaliforniaadventure #disneytok #disneytiktok #socal #movingon #inspiration #encouragement #grief

Just because you’ve been assigned to be Grumpy doesn’t mean you can’t choose to be happy instead 💜 This story came from an interview with Adriana Caselotti about her time working with Disney as the voice of Snow White. Pinto Colvig was always energetic & enthusiastic, even at 6am when everyone else was exhausted from the tour.  “So Pinto’s off doing a show for the porter. He’d do a whole show. The whole bit. And here I am trying to sleep and oh my God. So I said, ‘Pinto, how can you do this? How can you be so happy?’ He said, ‘Adriana, when I get up in the morning, I say to myself, ‘I’m not mad at anybody.’ And I thought to myself, ‘My God, we should all be like Grumpy. If we all thought I’m not mad at anybody, do you know what would happen? Everybody would be better off in the world… because we’d never think anything terrible.’ And this is what I learned from Pinto. He had a wife going through a cancer thing and she was dying and all this. He had five boys that he had to raise. It was rough. But this man was the happiest man of the whole group of Disney. This was a happy guy. And that was Grumpy. This is what I learned.” -Adriana Caselotti  #snowwhite #grumpy #disneyhistory #disneyanimation #choosehappy #disneymovie #disneycharacter #disneycharacters #goofy #pluto #pintocolvig #voiceactor #inspirational #disneysecrets #disneyparks #disneyland #disneyrides #disneycreator #disneytiktok #disneystories #disneytok #encouragement #disneytrivia #disneyfacts #snowwhiteandthesevendwarfs #disneyparks

I just want to be that lady with two ice cream cones sitting in the Carnation truck without a care in the world 🍦  You might be asking, well, who did Walt put on the windows then when Disneyland opened? It’s a good question, and a tough one to answer.  In general, the people who got screen credit (for the “show” of Disneyland) were similar to the ones who got credit in Disney films, which wasn’t very many. Over the bank, there was a list of art directors that came from other studios to help with the park (including a few people Walt didn’t particularly like). Among the names listed there were: Richard Irvine, Marvin Davis, Bill Martin, Gabriel Scognamillo, George Patrick, and Wade B. Rubottom. On another window were park engineers J.S. Hamel, William T. Wheeler, and John Wise. On one side of Market house were three of Disney’s own art directors including Ken Anderson, Bruce Bushman and Don DaGradi, and the other side featured Bob Mattey (whose window has a story of its own), George Whitney Jr. and some construction supervisors.  There were also a few other windows to people who helped in various capacities, like Renie Conley who made the costumes for the Golden Horseshoe and Disney lawyers Gunther Lessing and Fred Leopold. It seems that, from what I’ve seen, many of the people we think of as the “original” Imagineers weren’t necessarily honored by a window early on (though there is some ambiguity about which windows existed in 1955 and which were added later like set designer Emile Kurie in 1959). It seems like the intention for the first set of windows was not to honor everybody, but to give credit to those who were the main driving force behind creating Disneyland.   Though the studio artists adding their names to these cute fake stores was meant to be a stop-gap solution while they were rushing to complete the interiors, Harper Goff in a later interview seem to imply that those windows were the first step toward honoring Disney legends on Main Street USA.  #mainstreetusa #mainstreetwindows #imagineering #imagineers #waltdisney #disneyland #disneyparks #mainstreet #claudecoats #tonybaxter #disneylegend #disneystories #disneyhistory #disney #disneyfacts #disneytrivia #disneysecrets #1950s #disneynostalgia #disneyvintage #retrodisney #disneynerd #disneylandpark #disneylandcalifornia #disneytok #disneytiktok

All I do on this app is cry 🥺 Thinking about all of what TikTok has meant to me is both beautiful and painful as I process the loss. I’ve been here four years and can hardly believe that this is happening, but if it is, just know I’ll still be around, I’m just moving addresses, not leaving any of you or my goal to bring you obscure Disney history with a dash of encouragement 💜 Other places you can find me: Currently have 4 📚 on Amzon (look for Kate Grasso) Distory w/Kate & Kirk P0dcast on YT & anywhere you listen to p0dcasts Even if the worst should happen, just remember it’s not goodbye, it’s see ya real soon 🥰  Thank you to my amazing husband Eliot Grasso & his musical best friend Brandon Vance for this stunning music that has helped me process this loss. (Called “Little Star” on the improvised album That Which is Heard 🎶) #disneycreator #disneycreators #disneystory #tiktokstory #womencreators #tiktokban #tiktokbanned #disney #disneyparks #disneyhistory #disneystories #pocketfam #disneycicerone #goodbyetiktok #disneyfriends #disneyfan #disneycommunity #disneytok #disneytiktok #disneyworld #disneyland #mystory
There’s an awful lot of misinformation out there about who Walt Disney was. He wasn’t perfect (as no person is) but he also wasn’t the horrible human many believe he was based off of some poorly-sourced stories that have been told about him in the past (which we will dig into throughout this series).  As we move farther and farther away from a time when people who actually knew Walt were prevalent, I think it’s important that we tell the story of who he really was. Walt was a perfectionist with a temper, a doting, father, a playful human, a visionary, an introvert at times, and a believer of the good in people. He was complex and charismatic and simple and kind. He was also demanding and irritable and a terrible delegator. He was like us, and unbelievably unique, both.  While we explore these stories together, I hope that each one (sourced from those who encountered Walt personally) help all of us understand who the person of Walt Disney truly was, and the ways he changed our culture and the world in significant ways.  And because I know someone is going to say something about it, Walt loved animals and never sought to harm them in any way. It’s likely that most people didn’t know that popcorn is really bad for birds in the 1960s. Please don’t feed the ducks popcorn at Disneyland or dump it in the water 🦆😬 But you can sing Walt’s favorite song to them (Feed the Birds) if you want 🥰 #wal#waltdisneyl#walts#disneylands#disneyparkss#disneyduckse#feedthebirdss#disneysecretss#disneystoriess#disneytrivias#disneyfactss#disneylandcaliforniav#riversofamericas#disneyfoods#disneysnackss#disneyt#retrodisneys#disneyhistoryn#vintagedisneys#disneylandparks#disneylandresorts#disneyfans#disneyfanss#disneytoks#disneytiktokc#epcots#disneylandparisl#waltsrestaurant
