Nostalgia

"The richness of life lies in the memories we have forgotten." In 1960 a new house cost $12,700 and a gallon of gas was 25 cents. Average cost of a new car was $2600. What was your first car? What did Sarge drive around to pick up Marge?

Movie stars; Elizabeth Taylor, John Wayne, Richard Burton, Paul Newman, Elvis, Julie Andrews, Doris Day. Who else?

TV shows: Perry Mason, Route 66, Lassie, Bonanza, Gunsmoke.

A Fast Food burger was 20 cents, milk was $1.04 a gallon and we still had a milk man. Wonder Bread was making it's name and we had bread and butter at every meal.

Ahhhh! The memories!
