Walk Down Memory Lane with us 55+'ers...

Well, I remember lighting off fireworks on the 4th to celebrate the country's birthday. I guess that's pretty much banned in most cities today.

I remember riding bikes, mini-bikes, and later motorcycles - all without wearing a helmet. Is that still allowed?

I recall getting into fights where knives and guns weren't used. Nobody got seriously hurt. Now I hear the drive-by has sorta replaced that.

I remember getting toy guns as Christmas presents. Do we still have toy guns? Seems like I don't see any kids playing with them today.

I remember when the holiday season was called Christmas, and spring break was called Easter Vacation.

Things change.
