Aside from three of my children being born in the 80s, it would have to be Ronald Reagan’s winning two elections in landslides.

Thanks Silvie,

Great idea.

In 1985 I was vacationing in Florida; some friends and I got up very early to drive up to Cape Canaveral to see one of the shuttles launch.

The next year, of course, the Challenger exploded on launch.

That’s the historical. Since others are giving personal stuff, I’ll also tell you that is the same year that I met my lovely wife while studying in Ireland.
