Tuesday 4

Here is another Tuesday 4 started by Toni Taddeo and kept up in honor and memory of her.
now hosted by  our friend, Annie!
                                    This week is just some odds and end type questions..
                                 

1.   Ever been to a Drive In Theater? Would you like to see Drive In Theaters make a come back? I always enjoyed going to drive-in theaters.  It was a  fun summer evening activity!  I would like to see them come back if security was beefed up quite a bit!  Times have changed!
2.  Should towns provide community entertainment like bands in the park, fireworks on the 4th, community picnics or is the cost just too much?  I think community activities are  great and should be continued.  Certainly our tax dollars  can provide for such events. I'm not too sure about community picnics. Churches, employers, and clubs, etc  provide ample opportuinities for group picnic outings!

3.  What would you change about your town if you had the power?  I wish our town council was a bit more diverse in experience.  Our school board and  council  are deficient in providing the kind of leadership that makes a difference. We are seeing a decline in many areas... 

 
4. My  little high school offered 3 courses of education:  Business, University track and General education where you could also major in shop , carpentry, home economics and metal working, etc.
 
Would you like to see schools bring back business courses, shop classes and home  economics?  I sure do and auto mechanics, as well!  Kids are graduating not knowing how to do anything!  Life skills are very important!  It was suggested on facebook taht   high school kids  who are stranded at home should be taught  budgetting and other  accounting  activities.  Girls could be taught cooking and  some sewing.  Instead of just sitting around  playing games!

  3. I remember sewing lots of my clothes during Jr High, High School and College. It saved me lots of money!

  4. I live in a small town - in a big city - and the areas all around us have bands in the park, Saturday evening movies outside, hometown parades... I love it! I just figured every town did this!

    By the way, I love how my mouse has little plus signs - stars! - when I move my cursor over your page. I don't know how you make it happen but I sometimes just move my mouse just so I can see them!

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
