Remember old radio broadcasts?

When I was a teen in the seventies, my parents did a lot of traveling for vacation. Whether it was camping, seeing relatives, Disney or anything else, it was done in our camper van. Probably the best lasting memory is three kids leaning forward in the van, craning our ears to a weakly tuned AM radio, listening to CBS Mystery Theatre. Well, I found this site and the shows on here are wide and varied. For you younger folks with imagination, try this out!

There are ( or maybe were) a few of those around, but that looks like a good one.

I well remember sitting in the kitchen with the lights down listening to the radio.
(why were the lights down -- who knows -- that's how we did it!).

Good comment on the imagination. If you get into it, you can build a nice little world of your own.

Thanks,
