WOW....BTE that was the best blog ever!! As a child of the 60's I grew up remembering a lot of that stuff and I wouldn't trade those times or memories for ALL the money in the world today. The values I learned then are worth more than what the kids these days could ever learn. Thanks for the memories *sniff*
I was only about well lets just say a kid but I do remember. In fact I could run up to the little grocery store and buy my mom her cigs. And they didnt ask questions. Course if I knew then that that was what was going to kill my mom I might not have done it. Penny candy,pack of gum for a nickle and gas at about 11 cents a gallon! Oh yeah what great memories
this was great, tony! thank you!
That was awesome Tony although I am more a child of the 70s. I do remember a lot during the 60s, I just di not do a lot.
For me I remember gas being 25 cents a gallon when I was cutting the lawn but not yet driving. I did love the bands back then, a lot of the shows, AM radio (if you can believe that), B&W TV, rotary telephone, cars that were under $5,000, neighbors that actually did things for others, math (not modern math ... give me a break), milk (I drank tons of milk), bazoka bubble gum, candy cigerates, penny candy, walking to school (5 miles, uphill both ways in 5 feet of snow lol). Yes the 60s and 70s were great.
I loved watching this! I wasn't born until Dec.'71 so I didn't get to experience the 60s. There was some great music on that video...Chubby Checker is fixing to be here in Oklahoma performing at a casino...I just read about that yesterday!
Bet my parents remember this stuff! :)
