Cracker Barrel - WikipediaEveryone’s favorite roadside stop. Happened to stop in one today...gift shops are awesome. Saw some Lite Brites, Play-Dos, Gumbys, all sorts of throwbacks.

Awesome you got to hold them and see them up close. Me seeing a Gumby and a Pokey might just make me sign the greatest I have in years. Goosebumps for sure.

and a tie in. Those colors and America's favorite roadside stop back then........

 

Anyone remember the little boys ball cap that you made out of the kid's menu? I sure do and thought it was so cool.

Merry Christmas and a safe and happy holiday season to all the regulars on this thread.

 

Bob Cat you tossed up this thread back in February. I have greatly enjoyed the contents and have had a little fun myself flashing back and contributing.

48 pages it currently is. Did you see that coming BC?

Anyway as we close out this year I say that was an excellent idea old boy!

 

Best,

another old boy

I LOVE Dreams from Molly Hatchet. I lived in FL when they were coming on and man they were hot.

 

It Keeps You Running (Doobies) was played at our outdoor wedding reception back in 1987 and is the ONLY song I remember from that day so it's special to me. Michael McDonald sure has a great voice.

 

I had no idea this thread would survive this long. I sure get a kick out of the new posts when I log on. The vintage images have been great, too.

 

Here's another special R&R voice (Paul Rodgers)...

Seagull - Bad Company (Bad Company 1974)

Just saw Santa overhead and he shouted down to me to play this one.

 

[touch]

I discovered a great find.

[stryper]

We might might have done this one, still worth listen

[Bob Cat]

Stryper, I'm almost certain that one hadn't been posted. Unique and good.

 

 

Touch, that pretty much covered EVERYTHING on Saturday morning TV at the time including the commercials.

 

A few thoughts...

 

We still play Stratego here sometimes.

 

Sid and Marty Krofft must have had the best mushrooms in Hollywood. Lidsville? Wow.

 

Get this, I'm at my in-laws Christmas eve and NO ONE had heard of Johnny Lightning cars. How's that even possible?

[touch]

Yes that was a cool video find with all the Saturday TV cartoons and more.

Rip that t shaped power strip man! and girls don't remember cars much do they?

As 2019 winds down... this lil number is now 50 years old... Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings were on a roll...
