TV was Black n White and rabbit ears were a must if you wanted any reception. My housekeeper always had a snack for us when we got home from school so that we wouldn't bother her so that she could watch her show "Queen for A Day"....Clothes were hung outside on a clothes line and dishwashers were the kids washing the dishes by hand and putting them in a strainer to dry.... 93 KHJ and KRLA were the hot radio stations on our transistor radios...wow am I ever aging myself  |
Wow, I remember that Helm's bakery truck...the best cream puffs in the world! And I remember 1962 when my girlfriend and I(we were 12)walking downtown Long Beach, CA and seeing if we could get any "looks" from boys.
Those were the days all right!
