Mama used to listen to Stella Dallas in the afternoon but she condsidered it "not nice" for us girls to hear so we had to go outside to play. We had a place named The Bulldog Snack Shack where we danced to the juke box.

I only wish the kids of today had these kind of memories from their school days, instead of the turmoil and tragedy they have to remember. I'll bet not a one of the kids of today have any good memories of their school days, like we do.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495006720534249773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1353237482695386092.post-3526608948703397602009-03-01T13:18:00.000-05:002009-03-01T13:18:00.000-05:00WONDERFUL entry !!! Oh I remember those days well...WONDERFUL entry !!! Oh I remember those days well. Do you remember listening to 'Buster Brown' and 'Sky King' ....I think they were on Saturday mornings. I never got a swat at school but I had friends that did. Since I lived in a rural area, we rode the school bus each day. The bus driver would even put a kid off the bus if they were misbehaving. One of my girl friends had that happen to her. She had to walk the rest of the way to her house. If that happened today, the parent(s) would sue! And you're right about school being a social place. Here I am..almost 49 years after high school graduation able to have 15-20 glas from my graduating class come together every few months for a potluck. More would come but they don't live in town. Many of the gals that will be there Monday, I've know since grade school. What a great entry, Jimmy~thanks!Linda's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726098611180439141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1353237482695386092.post-45297838380273144842009-03-01T13:12:00.000-05:002009-03-01T13:12:00.000-05:00I wasn't born until 62, the 70s and 80s were a blu...I wasn't born until 62, the 70s and 80s were a blurgarnett109https://www.blogger.com/profile/15866927859779352957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1353237482695386092.post-39987244687160874912009-03-01T12:55:00.000-05:002009-03-01T12:55:00.000-05:00Wow, you brought me back down memory lane!
