I’m still freaked out by those darn monkeys! They are so creepy. Much scarier than the wicked witch

Remember manual typewriters, carbon paper and correction tape?

Spookiesmom, yes!! Can’t you still smell that fluid??

steam train whistles. Trains with real dining cars, white cloth table cloths, flowers on the tables.

Playing jacks. Street roller skates w the key to tighten them.....and the knee scabs from taking a spill.

Love this thread !

Remember when you had to “roll” the windows down in your car with a handle and listened to AM radio?
