SIGNS OF THE TIMES

I was driving home from Happy Jack and Payson this past Monday.  Driving alone, I sometimes noticed that my speed gradually crept up to 75 plus miles per hour.  After setting the cruise control I started to think how easy it is to speed in the newer, better cars.  When I first got married we had a car that was already 16 years old, (a 1947 Hudson).  I started thinking about what would have happened if we ever had tried to drive that old car over 50 miles an hour.  I think the windows would have rattled down and the hub caps, which we don't even have anymore, would have gone flying off in all directions. Oh how times change!
