Another one........ I remember when we used to put our junk in the alley behind our house and the rag man with a horse and buggy would come and put the stuff up...... We used to call him the shenny man... don't ask me what that meant.

I remember when we got our first TV.... It was black and white and had one station..... LOL

Oh and I remember when we had ink wells at school and had to use those silly pens that you dipped into the ink well. And I had long braids and the kid behind dunked them in the ink well.

Oh, when the girls wore crenolines and our skirts stuck out for miles and you had to starch them and hang them on the line. And they snagged your stockings all the time.

When the boys wore white buck shoes and thought they were cool.

I remember when we were outside playing all the time hopscotch, marbles , pick up sticks I guess the only game that is still around is monopoly. In the winter every one had a skating rink and we were out ice skating.

The good old days.... life was not so fast paced and we walked to school and came home for a hot lunch that mom cooked.
