During the mid-late 80's, I had many business trips to SLC and Tooele. I don't ski either, but one of the Senior Executives arranged a trip up to the Snowbird Resort. I'm not fond of heights, so the ride up wasn't that pleasant for me, but the resort and its lounge was simply spectacular. Thankfully, the drive back down was in darkness!!

It's a bit of a tangent but my dad literally told me he walked 7 miles to school every day, this was in S. Caroline during the depression.
He had been gone years and I had an aunt over there who was getting quite elderly, and I had been promising a visit. One fine day, I got off my butt and did go visit. At one point I mentioned the 7-mile thing and she allowed that it was about right, but why guess, it turns out both the house they grew up in, and the schoolhouse, were still standing. So we took a drive to get a measurement. That walk ended up being 6.8 miles... Close enough for me. |

What about the people who walked to school 20 miles uphill both ways? Or this:

We did indeed call our Culligan man!! Lubbock, Texas has very hard water and my mother wasn’t having that! I always had kind of a love-hate relationship with our water softener. It made the water softer, but it took forever to rinse the soap off in the shower.

If you remember watching the original tv show during the late 50's and early 60's with this former teen.....he was considered an early version teenage tv bad boy!

How about naming this guy and his hit TV show that ran from 1955 to 1959. I watched it later in the 60s when it was in re-runs. See if you can do it without looking it up

Second row - Chevy Caprice, don't know Cadillac and or possibly Pontiac model names. Last row - Ford LTD, possibly a Chrysler Cardoba and an AMC Paacer Wagon? They were not cars on my wish list.
