A Taste of the 50's






Near Bird in Hand and Intercourse, Pennsylvania.
They had some good music playing:
Eddie Cochran, Bill Haley, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry,
The Everly Brothers, Larry Williams, Ricky Nelson.
A pity there wasn't a jukebox,
only a poorly painted image of one on the wall.
The grandchildren enjoyed the burgers and milk-shakes.
Comfort food, comfort music. My America.
Plenty of flashy chrome and bright neon signs.
A young Amish boy, accompanied by his paid non-Amish driver,
seemed to be enjoying it all just as much as my grandchildren.
