In 1976 we drove to Kentucky and back from Pa. in my Pinto with our infant daughter in the back seat in a cardboard box. Imagine! Hey, we made it.
I lived in Wyoming for 22 years and in 1980 I was pulled over outside of Casper, WY for speeding. Had a .357 loaded in a gun belt wrapped around my steering column in my pickup and a Bud sitting next to me.
Got a warning. Was legal to drink and drive. Those were the days!
