Grew up in the fifties.And there was fast food, it just was not as prevelant as today.But going out to eat was for special occasions.We did have a TV and bought our first color set about 1960.And i can remember if ya moved the color TV the guy had to come out with this electric magnitized ring because moving it screwed up its color adjustment.

I do remember the forts, digging holes in backyards, having orange fights in the orchard,riding our bikes everywhere are what occupied out time after school. Oh yeah the first car i remember my folks had as a kid was a 1947 Ford and I remember my favorite place to ride in it was on the ledge behind the back seat and the window with no child restraint devises.And I survived to write this post!

I can remember them poking and teasing each other until one of the hit me, then I would cry and my mom or dad yelled at them. Boy, did I get it back when they got me alone.
