Not only his first cousin but his wife as well.

 

Wow! The Lawrence Welk Show was a staple at my great-grandma's house - seems like it was ALWAYS on, hahaha!

What'cha riding on Mr. Welk? My car-identify-fu is failing me.

 

Same at my grandparents house. I was left at their house on Saturday evenings while my parents went partying.
I remember there were always Geritol commercials at every break.

 

I especially enjoy the photos with old architecture and great scenery in the background such as this one.

 

You guys remember when you didn’t need to worry about graffiti on rail cars.... Those were the days.
