National Retro Day

Tweet

There are many National Day celebrations today but the one that most caught my attention was National Retro Day. A time back before there were cell phones and internet. Back when people talked face to face more and not text to text, a time when families had dinner at home around the table, talking about their day and children played games that didn't require the internet. Without cell phones, internet, or social media, people spent more time focused on each other when spending time together. All those moments were recorded in our memories for us to remember and look back on and not recorded on a device and posted on social media for the whole world to see. In a lot of ways they were more simpler times and the good old days as some people refer to those years. I am glad I grew up in that time. I have so many memories great memories of the days gone by. What are some things you did as a kid that kids today would never understand? Like watching black and white floor model TVs, fighting over who was going to change the channel, if you missed your favorite TV show you were out of luck until the summer when it repeated if you even seen it then. There are many memories that go back way beyond those days. Please share your retro memories I would love to hear them.
