Remember the 1950s? Well, I do, some, and one vague memory is the drive-in fast food restaurant where girls on roller skates moved quickly between kitchen and cars to take orders and serve food. As seen in
American Graffiti and
Happy Days.
Those at camp in 1980 who missed the real thing were treated to a reasonable facsimile when a whole crew of guys and gals dressed in their best 1950s garb
– poodle skirts, tight tees, rolled-up blue jeans, and slick DAs
– and on roller skates served the whole camp dinner
al fresco. It was a sight to see, and surprisingly no one went hungry from spilled food. Kudos to all those skaters. A wistful aside: 1980 was far closer to 1955 than 1980 is from today.
