Great memories of the late 60s watching the Wonderful world of Disney my dad would take us and get a tub of vanilla ice cream with a bottle of faygo red pop and root beer every Sunday night he always bought himself a pint of Black cherry I miss those days.
Oh how I remember that! We watched Marlin Perkins Wild Kingdom too! And on Saturdays (I think) we watched Lost in Space. At the time, the couch extended a bit into the hallway, perfect for 5-6 year old me to hide behind when the monsters showed up.. LOL!
I think tv was more fun before cable and vcr’s. You made sure that you were in front of it for your favorites. We watched it as a family whether it was Gilligan’s Island or Ed Sullivan. We waited for the once a year showing of The Wizard of Oz and we were thrilled when we got a color tv. Hubby and i started watching shows from the 50’s and early 60’s and so much better than what is on now.
Lucky city folk.. we had some humongous antenna that required frequent adjusting.. one person watching the one channel (channel 4 Spokane) and hollering to the “adjuster” about which position had less snow. Very subjective and frequently led to alternating the hollerer and the adjuster.

“Why?” “Because we love you. . .” and your money. . .
