When was the last time you did this?

This past weekend, I did something I haven't done in over 30 years. I went to a drive-in! 30 years ago, I saw Young Frankenstein in a yellow Roadrunner in Clarkston, Michigan. This past Saturday, it was a triple feature in Baltimore, MD: Surfs Up, Evan Almighty and Oceans 13. I'd known for years there was a drive-in in near where I lived, but it was on the other side of town. I always said "someday..." Well, someday came Saturday. Bengie's has a great playground beneath the screen (which their web site boasts is the largest in the US) and a fabulous untouched-by-time concession stand. Best of all (for me) is that they allow dogs! We enjoyed a fabulous sunset while we waited for the show to begin, and after it did a full moon shined down on us from overhead. Didn't get home until the wee hours of the morning after three films, but Greta and I will definitely be going back again soon! What a wonderful step back in time. If you have a drive-in near you, ENJOY IT!
