My dad died last month. My sister and I have been going through my mom and dads house which isn't fun. My mom and dad were children of depression parents so you know what we're going through. One fun part of that is going through the old toys of mine that were stored in the attic. (Toys in the Attic)

I've come across a few things, not a ton, but its fun to remember what was there. One thing that I found was a GI Joe from the late 60's to early 70's. He isn't too abused since I liked playing with the Johnny West stuff more than the GI Joe stuff.

One fun toy that still works is a Thunder Shift 500 Hotwheels race track. I'd say that it's been about 40-45 years since I set it up and played with it. Today my grandsons were over. I pulled it out of the box, cleaned all the mouse debris from it and set it up. The couple of Hotwheels that we have around the house weren't cutting it so we went to the big Kroger down the road and bought some appropriate cars.

I've still got the touch.....
