Even though my “good ol’ days” weren’t that great, it had its moments. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. It was a breath of fresh air in a room full of (metaphorical) farts.
Crack on!
Local kids have sold sweet corn out of a pickup at a parking lot corner for the last 2-3 years. This year the city shut them down. Why? “Public nuisance”?!?!??
The day John Lennon got shot I said “1 down, 3 to go” to my grieving classmates……
What a great concert that must have been….
And I remember the prizes, but can’t remember what they came in….cereal? They don’t seem “cracker-jack” like.
Some really good ones here. I remember some friends who had a bicycle paper route, we would go out to collect and after they got their quota we would just go out to collect when we needed money. Every day was a party.
“I wanna go back
And do it all over
But I can’t go back I know
I wanna go back
‘Cause I’m feeling so much older
But I can’t go back I know”

Love that song. Miss Mr. Money.
The kid at the lemonade stand. Had his exact hair cut and shirt. Hair is long gone now. Those sure were the good ol’ days. I have nothing but fond memories of childhood. It truly was wonderful and I am blessed to have had a great childhood.
I was a teenager from 1979-1988 and I couldn’t have asked for a better ten year period to be a teenager. Wow, what an exciting time. Damn near perfection for me. There was no better decade. Now, back then we idolized the 1950s. If there was another decade I could be a teenager in, it would be the 50s.
Please keep posting the good ol’ days. I look forward to it every week. It always makes my day.
I’m old enough to remember using those can keys.

When my daughter won a goldfish, she said “What should I name it?” I told her “Flushie”. And a couple of days later, Flushie had a toilet burial at sea……
