He never heard of staying hydrated in hot weather? How about carrying a pee jar in the truck? We were never without one for our family's 9-hour drive to the Carolinas in the 1950s. Air conditioning? Don't make me laugh.
“Air conditioning? Don’t make me laugh.”
No SEAT BELTS either, I’m guessing. ;)
In the early 60’s we used to drive from ‘The People’s Republic of Milwaukeestan’ to the ‘wilds’ of Central Wisconsin just about EVERY weekend of my young life to relax at ‘The Lake’ with my Dad’s parents who retired to Paradise. (Vs Milwaukeestan in the ‘60’s.)
We had a VW Bug and it wasn’t unusual to put the BABY in the far back ‘cubby’ so she could sleep on the 4 hour trip ‘Up Nort.’
Had we ever been rear-ended it would’ve been ‘Bye-Bye Baby!’ :(
