Losing our last drive-in this year

Growing up I lived a couple miles from the ocean and that's where we went to steam up the windows.

 

Well I hate to say this we didn't have a beach close by so a drive in helped a whole lot.

 

Yup, Yup. Back dirt roads and field driveways worked good too! Oh and the old railroad tracks that they no longer used. Miles of driving, passing many, many cars doing the same thing me and whoever was the flavor of the night, intended to be doing. I knew most of the people in those cars too, always was the topic of interest the next school day to see who was bumpin uglies with who.

 

Yep and a sub division that had started grading the land for houses.

 

Hi Rebel, I'm doing OK...work'n, slave'n, etc. I still have not bout a new PC, I've been meaning to but I just have not got around to it...some thing else always grabs my attention it seems so I jump on my Daughters PC every now and then.


That drive in that Norm is talking about was also the very first drive in I went too. I can't remember how old I was but I was very young. My Dad took me and a cousin who disabled. I was given some money and told to take my cousin and get soda and pop corn. I was so young I did'nt have a clue of what money ment and took the bill that Dad gave and brought back 3 buckets (KFC size) of pop corn, 3 huge pops, and a fist full of candy bars...and some change. I still remember how TICKED my dad was at me and I have memorie that we did'nt even finish 1 pale of pop corn

 

The Cobra changed to his rebellious stripes. You son of a seadawg. Everyone's gonna wonder who SS was.

 

Now he will forever be the all mighty OTR

 

Wish we had a drive in round here. It'd be a great date idea. Especially for those girls who like the wagon...
Anyone know of any in the NJ area? (PA or NY)

Just think about it, lay down the seats, lay out a pad, and you have a bed... better than a pickup cause you have a roof... (I can fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood in there, you can sleep in there)



Anyone know anything about this place?
Google maps says they're ~75 miles from my place. I'd like to find a closer one, but if this is as close as I can get, I'll take it.
