Mom, dad and I would go to Johnstown, Pa. Mom would go get her hair done and dad and I would chow down on Coney Island hot dogs and chocolate milk. They were the bestttttttt hot dogs.'
I remember wondering why the hot dogs did not fall off. The clerk would line hot dogs buns half way up their arms and then put the hot dogs in the buns and then add the onions, relish, mustard and ketchup.. I remember they also had such hairy arms .. sounds gross.. But I swear they were the best hot dogs I have ever eaten... |

Going to twi-night double headers at Comiskey Park with my dad (Wrigley Field didn't even have lights then!)
Alley baseball (one fence gate was first base, a pothole was second base, garage door third base) Going to the park district swimming pool every day all summer long. Regards, MS __________________ E = F-flat Musician's Theory of Relativity |

Laying in the grass with my neighbor and looking at the clouds trying to figure out what they look like...
Taking guitar lessons and playing in a band (made up of the students - wish I had kept that up!)..... My sister took me to a bar when I was 8 (she was 17) - sounds bad, but I didn't know any better and I had fun playing pool and drinking a coke. Then we went to a swimming hole. (Unfortunately, we got in trouble and she couldn't take me out anymore).... Seeing my cousins in Maine - we would play hide in seek in my grammies big old house (seemed really big then when we were little, lots of places to hide).... While in Maine, walking down to the corner store that still had soda in glass bottles.... I have to say that I cringed when I saw this post, I really hated my childhood and don't remember a whole lot of it except some bad stuff. This helped me remember a few good things that I had forgotten about  Tranquility __________________

Back in the late 50's the in spot for Spring Break in CA was Palm Springs. All the movie stars of the era had homes there. (Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra, Phyllis Diller)
My family went on a vacation to see the "in" spot. The cars were big, convertable, and sported the infamous "fins". We were driving down main street when coming from the other direction was an old lady riding on the hood of a car. She was wearing a lepoard print bikini, big floppy hat, big dark sun glasses and smoking a cigarette in one of those long black cigarette holders. My sister and I still chuckle to this day about our trip to Palm Springs. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
