Fellow babyboomers . . . one of the things I am so grateful for growing up in the 60's and 70's is that we had awesome music. For me, it started with The Beatles. We experienced the British Invasion, were fascinated with hard rock, danced until wee hours to disco music and I was blown away with the fabulous music of the 80's, the overwhelming joy with the premier of MTV and the immensity of watching future stars bloom on Saturday Night Live.
My apologies to the younger generations, but the music that has followed SUCKS!
As a child, my parents routinely took us on Sunday road trips that had us discovering new areas every week. It enhanced my love of Florida. Today there is no such thing as a pleasant Sunday drive. Normal people turn into demon-like creatures when they get behind the wheel of a car.
We grew up respecting our elders. Today everyone forgot what respecting anyone means.
Although the world we live in is vastly different than today, we have YouTube to relive music, entertainment like old television shows and old movies.
OK, I'll stop. I will soon get back to celebrating those things we miss about what we grew up with.
