Just like I remember...



The Steak and Shake was THE drive in when I was in high school.  On Wed. nights following church, we would go to the SAS and get a coke while watching the cars circle the drive.  The servers would bring our tray and place it on the car door.  The hamburgers, chili, fries and milk shakes were the reason everyone headed to that particular place.

They built one just off I45 close to Webster and League City.  We ate there today.  The taste was the same, but the burgers were about two thirds the size of what I remember.  The fries were the same.  It was eleven o'clock and I was the first to ask for coffee.  So, about 20 minutes later she brought my coffee.

Anyway, it was nice to remember.  As childhood fades more and more, I try to visit those memories and relish the blessings God has brought into my life.  Take a moment and reflect on those good old days of the past.

My grandchildren have shared those memories even though the drive ins were many miles apart.
