Description
I remember my high school years driving down what was called hamburger row or hamburger lane. It was the section of town that had nothing but places to get a quick bite to eat. Some would drive-thru and get hamburgers, milkshakes, and other great food to go. But the best memories were made by those who parked. Food would be brought out to you on the classic drive-in trays that rested on your car window. Lots of kids would meet after school or in the evening just to hang out together.

Maybe a bit before my time, but I still like the retro 50's icons.
Carolyn Marshall replied:
Heather, I was just a kid during the 50s, but have fond memories of some of these wonderful times. You can't help but smile when you think of the drive-in food places where the waitresses actually served you on roller skates (not blades, LOL!) It was a fun time for sure.
Carolyn Marshall
Absolutely! I can remember going to these drive-ins and being waited on by waitresses on skates. :-)

Thanks, Mary. I would venture to say a lot of people go down that memory lane when they see this. I sure did!
