I remember growing up on a farm meant no indoor plumbing. It wasnt until I was in 2nd grade when we finally had it put in. Until then, we use an outhouse, took baths in a round tin tub and heated the water on the wood stove. We got water by pumping it off our back porch.
Sometime after indoor plumbing came, the 57 chevy with back wings followed. And a tv..black and white. No remote..lol. Bunny ears. Snow. National anthem. Ms Rosemary and Barney Bean and Captn Kangaroo.
I got a transistor radio. Rode roller coasters that would bore the kids today but scared the bejeeezuz out of me. As did the movie the 50 foot woman, the blob and godzilla.
I wore bobby socks then knee socks. Wasnt allowed to wear pants until HOT PANTS became the fashion and then somehow miraculously we girls could.
I wore garter belts before they were considered sexy lingerie. Women's nipples NEVER showed nor did men's underpants.
