Those Were the Days

A chronicle of growing up in the 1950s in small-town America. Experiences include bicycling, games we played (both summer and winter), description of Thanksgiving Dinner at Grandma's with her coal stove, and playing baseball even when there were not enough players for two teams. Sometimes we played with as few as three players. Of course there are sections on our schools, elementary and high school, and rock and roll. The old swimming hole, part time jobs, and even electric trains get some attention. Come along with the author on a journey to a small town of 200 people and learn or remember how we lived in the 1950s. It was a magical time in a magical place.
