HAHA. Whenever I see Hoover Vacuums, I'm reminded of that one about J. Edgar Hoover:
"What does J. Edgar Hoover have in common with Hoover vacuums?"
"They both make lots of noise, they both suck up dirt & they both spent lots of time in the closet."

Remember getting dressed up for Easter ?

I remember those dresses and the crinoline underneath it oh how it scratched

Mom used to dip those crinolines into a starch mixture to make them extra full, and scratchy. I loved dressing up, but was a real tomboy at the same time.

I remember the road maps from the gas stations.

My parents would make me the navigator to keep me occupied and give them a little peace and quiet.

I remember 95% of everything pictured in these posts. I became wistful looking at the same. Statistics aside, I definitely feel that life was easier, then, more safe, and less complicated. Given the chance to go back to the days of my youth, knowing what I know now, I'd take it

I am with you!

The washing machine depicted were still in use in my home town far into the 70's. It is the only type you can use if there is only one outside
