Things I remember growing up.

There were full service stations.

Cigarettes could be bought from vending machines.

There were gun racks in the back window of trucks.

NO WAR ON DRUGS!
There were many over the counter cold medications that were later pulled from the shelf due to the war on drugs. If you got stopped for a traffic violation, there was no need to check for drugs. There were asthma medications that are now outlawed.

We walked to and from school. We hauled wood. We stood in chairs to cook and wash dishes. We even gathered those green worms from trees to go fishing.
(Catalpa worms)

The word racist was not found in Webster's dictionary. Racism was unheard of. There wasn't any hate crimes. They were just crimes.

Sometimes, I miss those days.
