I remember Greenriver Road was TWO lanes and Division (Lloyd now ) was two lanes . ! Dubl-R on the corner of Division , McGee Volskwagen on the same side of the road , and three or four houses on the east side of the Greenriver , where Burlington is today , I remember the Baumgarts , and Negleys' being two of the residences and the rest was cornfields down to the Evansville Drive-in .
Really well done. I remember a few of these places and scenes. Lovely to see them again. Wish you had a picture of the old Grand Theater and Lowes Majestic. I used to live a couple of blocks from Bosse, spent lots of time at Roberts Municipal Stadium.
Exceptionally beautiful. The photos speak for themselves, but their arrangements and the camera movements combined with the music make this worth more than the fifty viewings it’s received.
My best friend was named Dome Phoomuang. Went to Castle High School like 77. Was from Thailand. The high school raised money to bring some of his family here. I believe 77 was year his sister that was like 17 committed suicide. And few years later his mom's was arrested for bringing Heroin into the US. He was arrested too. Best friend I ever had! Used to go hunting and fishing trapping in the Woods.
Mom's used to go to Henderson, Kentucky for the Harness Racing. I also remember the Fall Festival! My family is from and still live in Germany. Are Generational Diamond Cutters. Mom's never had a Driver's License in the Day. 70s. Would just Date whoever pulled her over. Dad used to drive drunk. Cop would just tell him to take it easy on way home.
I too went to Audubon Park and later on Riverside Downs to watch harness racing with my Dad and Uncle as a child. Friday nights at Audubon and Saturday's at Ellis Park(still have live racing) thoroughbreds. My Grandmother and Aunt never had a drivers license. Grandfather at the Eagles (F.O.E.) all day on Saturday's and Sunset drive-in Saturday night drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon and double shots of Canadian Club all day. Pulled over by police leaving the drive-in, shitfaced, cop told him to be careful and followed us home to make sure we made it home safely. My oh my how times have changed.
@@scottwendel633 my mom never had a driver license either. Would Date whoever pulled her over. I lived in Poseyville, Newburgh, all over Evansville. Live in Phoenix now, since 1979. Lived in Socal too. From San Francisco down to San Diego, from Long Beach to Lake Elsinore, Riverside. Early 80s. Watch old episodes of T J Hooker to see background of what it used to be...
Anyone go to Howard Roosa School, like early 70s? Or Castle High School, 77? Think I went to Central, too. Mom's went to Bosse. Or the Continuation High School in Perris, California? 1981? They had classes like horse shoes, pottery. Most students had Probation officers, I remember these Black guys who didn't go there but would show up at Lunch in their Hydraulic Low Rider to throw dice.
Todd Carter, you are amazing; this is perfect. The LOVE is jumping off the screen and being sent directly to our Pam! Thank you for producing this in THREE days!
Thank you. As a lifetime resident, I'll be sharing this with my family. My dad was the first baby born at the beginning of the 1937 flood. I'm sure he will enjoy the video.
this was so well put together great job the music made me so nostalgic of when I was a small child driving into Evansville with my family. my brother in law worked at swifts and we all went to the general Baptist church we always got donuts after church and ice cream in the summer at the local shop. I miss those times
