A DAY in Infamy…..
I got married on DEC 7 ,a day of infamy as I remind my wife …..of 61 years hehe
It was 33 degrees in Miami Beach one day on my Honeymoon,…..I hardly noticed….hehe
I stayed at a place called Atlantic Towers …in the Penthouse ..recently opened just finished construction..1957.
I loved Miami in the 1950’s spent every vacation there ,it was the most Glamorous place new hotels sprung up every year .I remember the opening of the Fontainbleu,Eden ROC,..etc.
WW2 had ended ,everybody had JOBS ,economy was booming everybody had money because during the WAR there was nothing to spend it on,Military economy ,you needed Ration Stamps to spend money ..no CARS were made for 5 years so cars sales boomed…Housing boomed,teenagers had plenty money and jobs ,nobody was on welfare,everybody worked….
1950’s were HAPPY DAYS…..the best the Country ever had..NOBODY did drugs,! rumors of a few musicians did marijuana that was it…..Americas best Days..
