Drive-Ins

Drive-in movie

Drive-in movies. Drive-in restaurants. It seems like we were always at one or the other. Think back … to the car culture of our childhood or teenage years. What memories do drive-ins conjure up for you? Food servers on roller skates? Popcorn all over the car? Necking (or more) in the back seat? What should our unlucky progeny know about this world they never knew? Share your drive-in stories forward.

Beatles vs Stones

Think back … to the “British invasion.” It was the Beatles vs the Rolling Stones and you had to pick a side. The moptops next door or the bad boys of rock? Soulful John or unruly Mick? “She Loves You” or “Satisfaction?” “The White Album” or “Sticky Fingers?” Do you still love their music? Are you fans of the remaining band members now? Share your Beatles and Stones stories forward.

What We Ate

Think back … to family dinners. Reading cereal boxes at the breakfast table. Lunch in the school cafeteria. Barbecues. Drive-ins. Pizza parlors. Chinese takeout. Burger joints. “Special occasion” restaurants. So many of our memories revolve around food. Share them forward!

Grandparents & Grandchildren

Many children have special relationships with one or more grandparents—and vice versa. Think back … to your own grandparents; what made them special? What would you like others to know about them? What’s it like to have your own grandchildren? How would you like them to think of you? You must have a hundred stories about grandparenting. Share them forward!
