sometimes all it takes is a song on the radio......
and before you know it you're a young girl again, wearing your favorite sundress and new sandals, freshly painted pink toenails, sitting in the back seat of the car with your brothers, long hair blowing all over the place because the windows are down, on your way to the A&W for a root beer float, and the entire family is singing this song at the top of their lungs.
inspiration is timeless.

Oh you took me back too. Wonderful memories......
Sometimes it takes only one of your posts to bring a grin on my lips :D
What a great way to start the day, Lori! All those fun teenage memories!... Remember "hip huggers" and "bell bottoms" and tube tops (yikes, did I really wear those things?) and Heaven Scent, and Loves Baby Soft cologne...OMG, seems like yesterday, doesn't it?! I just LOVE this, and the memories you've stirred up too! xoxo Paulette
Ah yes, it certainly takes me back... Thanks for memory.
How fun - you paint the long ago memory so vividly! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Yes!!!! A&W root beer, my brother, that song! What a great start to my morning - thanks!
Oh yes, those were the days!!! A&W Root beer had to be the best! Served in frosted mugs...oh yum!
Love your journal posts and they never fail to put a smile on my face! Have a wonderful week!
