Bruce Smyth filmed the majority of both films in 1976, 1978-79 and 1986-88. The films consist of footage from a trip to Disney World, Busch Gardens and events going on at both family homes in Uxbridge, MA and RI. The film opens with the plane ride to Florida. Following the plane ride is a water show at Sea World. There are other scenes of Christmas time, a game of Badminton, sledding in the family backyard, the wedding of Bruce Joanne Smyth, Chris Smyth's birthday party, the video of the Man in the Mountain which no longer exists, and finally Santa's Village in New Hampshire. Other segments of particular interest include a waterskiing show, kids playing soccer and a parade including Girl Scouts and Tiger Scouts.
