Stick & paper model airplanes and real hobby shops,
Saturday double features with a serial and 10 cartoons,
B.B. guns & pocket knives,
Boy Scout marksmanship training and my first .22 (Savage #15),
Family picnics in places you'd avoid today,
Camping that didn't require a $100,000 RV (bus),
"public lands" that were open to the public,
Grandparents and neighbors who would tell you precisely why they left the "old country",
Actually looking forward to your first job,
Respecting the president even when your folks had voted for the other guy,
Respecting your father 'cause he worked two jobs, insisted you apply to college & was OK with the one you chose...OK, that was the sixties and the omens were already bad.
Like I said, don't get me started.
Not to mention real model airplane glue that you could get high from (accidentally).
Public Ice Rinks in Winter
The old Ice House around the corner (yep - the iceman still cameth)
Penny candy (long paper stips with colored sugar 'buttons", etc.)<
Could go on and on too...
