In the 1975-1976 school year, I was in the 6th grade. There was some sort of kids fun day at the local fairgrounds and for one of the attractions you could buy a ticket for a ride in a Model A. I ended up getting several tickets - that was the first time I rode in one. Since then I have owned four.
We had a beautiful day on the Gulf Coast. The hotels are filled up - I heard a couple on the news say that they were going to lemonade from bad lemons while they were enjoying the beach.
