There's nothing more freeing than when we all had landlines. Ironically, with the phone connected to the wall with a cord, we were all somehow more whimsical and less enslaved by communication. In the '70s and '80s, we could disappear without a trace for hours and nobody would bat an eye. Nowadays if your location services on your phone go dark for 20 minutes, your kids might file a Missing Person's report.
Free as a bird and unencumbered by technology any more complicated than the cigarette lighter on the Volkswagen dashboard, life was simple back then. We didn't have constant cellular monitoring–in fact, as kids back in the good ol' days, we didn't worry about much more than the baseball card in the spokes of our bicycles and deciding what chips to put in our bologna sandwiches for lunch.
So if you'd like to chuckle at an archaic collection of museum-worthy throwback photos, be my guest and scroll onward to enjoy a burst of nostalgia from a bygone time of endless freedom.
