Remember drive in movies? I remember me and my brother putting blankets and pillows on top of the station wagon in the summer and watching the movie unsupervised. My dad worked in the snack bar, and during intermission we would go to him for our free snacks. It was heaven.

My backyard was the drive in. We would sit on our shed and watch movies. It later became a "swap meet".

Gizmo, we still have one "drive in" in Perth not far from where I live. They show double feature movies and are reasonably cheap at $5 for kids, $10 for adults. Cheaper during the week days.
