Going steady. High school dances crinoline skirts Bobby socks brown and white shoes. Late movies getting in free since the person collecting money goes home when the last movie begins that’s when we all go in free

High School sock hops. I love it when girls worn skirts, bobby socks and white shoes. That was sexy. Drive inn movie theaters, necking in the car and lovers lane. I am 71 and miss the good old days.
