Cell Pic Sunday

My cell pic this Sunday is the old drive in of my youth. As far back as I can remember up until my kids were almost grown, it was open.

“Son of a gun it’s Refreshment Time!” Was the announcement between movies. The concession stand was always busy selling popcorn, hotdogs, pop and candy. There were speakers on stands outside your car that hooked to you window but later you could pick up the sound through your car radio.

So many memories flood my mind about this place. It was always so exciting as a kid. Mom would pack a cooler of sandwiches and pop and there was a playground at the base of the screen where play until the movie started.

As a rebellious teenager, my friends and I would often sneak in through the cornfield on the backside of the property and join up with the one friend with a car that had drove in.

As a young mother my kids loved it too. They sat out on the hood of car or the bed of a truck in the late summer nights.

There was just something special about being outside at night watching the big screen light up!

I hope you enjoyed my selection and maybe it brings you special memories too~
