I had a van for years. Never went to a drive-in, but had lots of
interesting "breaks" from work at lunchtime with a rather attractive
friend...

I was 15 when the song "Chevy Van" hit the airwaves. From that moment on,

I
thought long and hard about (someday) owning a van ....any kind of van.

Must
own van!!! Ahh, to be 15 and full of wonder again. g

I'm here to pick up your daughter sir. We're going to see the movie Jaws

at
the Drive-In ...in my van! Alas, that *dream car* moment never happened
(sigh).

Reality, that next summer, turned out to be an army green 68 Pontiac
Catalina - bad....with a 400 engine - good! :-)

Going to the local Drive-In Theater, with my high school buddies ...(sigh)
...kind of
pathetic. (Especially when we were *at* the Drive-In watching Danny DeVito
in his movie - The Van)

I believe the Twin Cities is down to their final two Drive-In Theaters.

Just
up the road from us, the local Drive-In got turned into townhouse a years
ago. The "65-Hi" was one of the last three in the metro. Our metro area

has
3.5 million people and covers 50 x 50 miles.
