"Home James and Dont Spare the Horses.."

Lexie: Glad you got to visit one of our fading places of higher learning - even I can't go their without getting amused... but all of them were different and most have disappeared along with rollar rinks roadside diners root beer stands with car hops and Drive In Theaters..

We still have a 24 hour bowling alley Only 1 drive in theatre though, and the two roller rinks that have been there forever. All our A & W's closed a few years ago

I usually win at pull tabs in the bowling alleys

I'm looking forward to Lexie's return.

Lexie - There's no place like home!

Littlebit, I copied and printed the post about parents and gave it to a friend. The friend was very grateful and said to thank you . It gave a whole new prospective on the situation!

Of burgers and root beer -

I like out local In-N-Out burgers. Just hamburgers, cheeseburgers, fries, shakes, and sodas, in those white and red cardboard cartons. Very yummy! They have a "secret menu", not published but known by afficianados. http://www.zenlemur.com/innout.shtml

My husband and kids have gone crazy about root beer. A local neighborhood deli carries 30 or 40 kinds, many imported, and holds tastings, so that customers can compare Sparky's, Sprecker's, Virgil's, Root 66, Briar's, etc., etc., etc. It is surprising how different a basic commodity like root beer can taste.

(Ah, but I'm a tea connoissier. Now THAT'S a civilized drink!)

Mrs. M - I'm glad your friend found the post helpful.

LEXIE IS BACK!
