you get a tingle of memory when somebody drives down the road in that old white cross country driving station wagon and remember your family trip to Yellowstone National Park.

You all mentioned leisure suits. I had a light blue brush denim leisure suit. And I looked hot in it. It was my disco suit. (I still have it BTW. Can't fit in it but I still have it!)

You remember when any skirts below the knee were considered uncool.I remember wearing a midi-skirt to school my sophomore year and everyone thought I was a freak. I did it because my mother was always cutting edge about fashion and she begged me to wear it.

 I had several pairs of colored fishnets. Blue, orange, yellow, green, etc. They matched whatever dress I was wearing. I thought I was just so very cool.

I remember the pie tins of Rit dye and all the rubber bands and the t--shirts or scarfs or whatever you wanted to tie-dye.
I could make such a mess. Mom would let me do it on the back patio and my hands would be just black from all the colors - I didn't figure out the plastic glove part till my 2nd session of tie-dying.
She had enough of my mess though, when I tie-dyed this really pretty white sweater I got for Christmas. It turned out pretty cool, but it never really looked as good as it did before.

That's just far too weird. I had a girlfriend with a red sweater who did the same thing.

When you remember having to buy your bell bottom jeans and your pea coat at the Army/Navy store.
I remember having a pair of the go go boots that looked like Nancy Sinatra's. Hadn't thought about those things in years. They had red lining, and they were a prized possesion back in grade school.

Okay, okay one more. I had one of those little Fisher Price cameras where the flash bulb rotates, and you can see the pics inside. Wow, those kids were wearing some foxy clothes in that thing. Know what's cooler? I still have one of those that really works in my hope chest now....heheheehe

Did you really? I can't remember where I got this one. I found it about 5 yrs ago, and was surprised that the bulb still rotates and the pics still frame through. That's pretty cool. My daughters keep trying to steal it from me too...lol
