We still have one that I know of here in Sacramento.

There was a coffee-table book I saw once that was photography of
dilapidated drive-ins across the country... was sad.

They are just now finally shutting down the local Puget Park drive-in
theater that we have hung onto forever.  Sad to see it go, but it's been
a prime piece of real estate, even in these times.  I think there are
only a few left in the state now.

I must be living in a time warp.

Our small town still has a drive in theater.

I've also gotten fingers/arms caught in one of those wringer washing
machines that mom used when I was a youngin.

Got caught sneakin "out" of it once many moons ago.

Yeah... I remember about 2/3 of those... including Drive-In movie
theaters, Brownie Hawkeye cameras, flashbulbs, flash cubes, Wolfman
Jack, Jiffy Pop (still around, but darned hard to find!) and a few other
things. I remember as a kid gas going up to a whopping 50ยข a gallon or
something and thinking that was high, then watching as I was about to
start driving, gas got up to, gasp, almost a whole dollar a gallon.
Never figured it would reach almost $3/gallon (or more in some areas!)

I had a 1976 TransAm that I pulled out the unleaded plug in the fill
neck and removed the catalytic converter so I could use leaded because
it was cheaper for a poor High School student.

Even better was when they we're phasing out Regular gas. I had a 1970
Firebird and remember paying $.40-45 per gallon for my Junior year in
High School.

Yep.. Remember all of it.

 

Except gas was about $0.75 when I started driving.
