Nostalgia.....can one be nostalgic for something they never had....

Lately I have been working on restoring an old corevette.....and I was getting nostalgic for that 1960s California surfer/car culture

Where I could wear a pompador and roll of my sleeves on my white tee....suck on a cigarette James Dean style

Listen to beach boys and Jan and Dean....and get my car ready for the big race!!!

Maybe surf a little or crude the strip

SWEET!! Most folks are not clued to him.

There are better clips floating around out there. My Uncle introduced Wee ML to the wildly age-inappropriate stylings of The Amazing Jonathan.

My mother used Prell shampoo. I still remember the color; it was so bright green. And the smell. So unique.

I remember this television ad from 1960 like it was yesterday. I was fascinated when the pearl was dropped in the Prell and watched and watched each time like it was important. Back then, I guess it was.

That was before my time but I've always been fascinated with America in the 1950s and 1960s; the mid-century culture and can-do attitude.

Sky King was a childrens TV show set in the 1950s. Like other television head-of-households of this era, Sky King had a comfortable revenue stream with no occupation other than catching bad guys and flying around in his trusty Cessna 310B appropriately named Songbird. Always at his side was his perky, young niece Penny-- who also had no scholastic or career endeavors-- but could pout, bat her eyes and ask "uncle Sky, can I have a pony" or "can I have an airplane" with such inocence and sincerity she was seldom denied. "Why sure Penny." Their base of operations was the Flying Crown Ranch, the filming location an actual home on Rancherias Rd. out in Apple Valley, California built decades before suburban encroachment. Today a giant Walmart shopping center lies north, just over the hill. Sky King would never be able to land Songbird on the busy street and taxi to his front door.

Home made chocolates. My grandpa made them from scratch and gave a box to everyone at Christmas. So good. Chocolate dipped caramels, mint filling, raspberry filling, etc. He was an amazing baker, cook, everything. I miss him. Family get together were never the same after he passed away.
 
Groups of homes that truly feel like a neighborhood, where people actually know each other and look out for each other.

NCbear (who was struck, when visiting Mexico two Christmases ago, by how people lived behind high walls but were sociable—the opposite of where I live in the USA, where people live in an old neighborhood without even fences but don’t socialize with each other at all)
