I'm so old I Remember when:

[Cynthia12]

How about cruising the main drag in a small town on Friday and Saturday nights?
I'm sure that's a thing of the past now.

Yes, I posted that here somewhere. We did it. It was a blast. This was a small town back then. Not considered a small town now. We reached the over 40,000 mark.

Same here, but still have rugs that need vacuumed. Unfortunately.

I love my carpet. I put wood..fake..in the bathroom. I've put litte carpets down on it. Love my thick carpet in my rooms.

I remember when...
Brooks n Dunn were still a country duo and you could get push pops for a quarter.

Any of you old people know what this is?
Hard to notice but the end of the handle swivels to one side.
It's not a quiz. I'm actually clueless....

Pot handle looks like - shove the pot in the oven and remove the handle, hook the handle back on to remove from the oven or stove.

Looks like at any rate !

I remember cruising the mall. A few of us getting dropped off at the mall for about 6:30 and getting picked up at 9 when they closed on Friday and Saturday night before we had licenses. After getting driver's licenses we graduated to the talked about cruising a stretch of street in the middle of a neighboring city. One end we turned around in a burger King parking lot and the other end a schwegmanns grocery store parking lot. Stopping at a couple parking lots on each side to chill and let the bass flow. Back then the cops couldn't care less. Try hanging out in a parking lot now at 10 at night you're guaranteed to get run off by the cops.

Aw, thanks for finding that. It's the summer version. I'm pretty sure that in the winter one they may have been holding candles at dusk... Or my old brain might be smushing it together with something else in an effort to condense things and make more space for all the new memories yet to come.

Does anyone still put icicles on their tree? I bought some different colored one a few years back to try. That was it. View attachment 3693246

They were certainly beautiful but finding them in the vacuum bag or static clinging to your pantleg months later was never much fun.

Somebody should show this to my grammar school teacher. She owes me a few points back on a couple of assignments.
