📢 Forum Update - Hello everyone! I've made an improvement to the forum that should make following active discussions much easier. Beginning today, forum topics will display the most recent replies first (while keeping the original topic post at the top), so you no longer have to navigate through multiple pages to find the latest conversation. This change also helps improve the browsing experience in long-running discussions with many pages of replies. If you notice anything that doesn't seem to be working correctly or have any feedback, please let me know. — Richard G. 😂 Oh, too funny! Hey, my grandparents also met at the dance halls in the 1930’s. Hold that Tiger, the Peabody, etc. dances were all the rage back then. When my grandfather proposed to her he said he loves to travel so my grandmother thought ooh la la she will be going places overseas (dreaming of Paris, Rome …) Nope! His idea of “traveling” was taken the subway train into NYC and watching the planes take off at LaGuardia and had lunch “airport food”. 🤣 One time in the 1960’s he did adventure out of his zip code and drove her down the east coast to Miami. When he stopped for gas he asked the attendant where am I? He heard in a southern accent “Pee Dee, SC” and there were no normal indoor plumbing bathrooms … only an out house. 😂 My poor grandmother had to wait until they got to “Pedro’s South of the Border”. @geri9 Too funny — my parents met in High school and I met my hubby in High School — we all traveled in and out of country thank you to the US Navy But as to the dance floor — yeah no that was never in our blood at any level Ooh ooh Hey, I used to faithfully watch Happy Days and Laverne & Shirley … does that count? @geri9 We're swing dancers. We'll teach you. (When my mom asked how a found a man who dances, I said, met him on the dance floor, I didn't go looking in a bowling alley.) So you were here then. You're in. PS I had a '69 Charger. Does that count? And I still like the Beach Boys. People born in the 60's have lived in 7 decades, 2 centuries, 2 millennia, but we had muscle cars and the Beach Boys! Born 1951 @perhapstoday So you were here for all of it. We can sneak you in with Bob. He's 1948.
I envy those who lived during the 1950’s!
And I also want to take part in the jitterbug dance contests … I just need a few lessons first. 😉 So can you let me in thee club house?
