Ahhhhhh yes, the 70s. To paraphrase one of them famous guys: It was my best of times, it was my worst of times.
Mostly happy memories, but as the pics point out, not always the prettiest. |
Is the fourth-to-last photo Seattle? I can't figure it out.

I like. I've always thought of the 70s as a major transitional time in America where the "old world" relatively speaking was quickly dying concurrent with a new both better and worse world that was being constructed, the one I grew up in. Whenever I can find photos of cities especially during the 1970s and very early 80s I get pretty excited. Thanks for posting this Okayyou!

Wow, greatly interesting, nasty photos. I like.
