(c)2007 Hope everyone had a great 4th of July, here in the United States and to all our troops overseas. A friend of mine and I spent the end of the day at a drive-in movie theatre in our area, the Solano Drive-In. We watched the new Transformers movie,...it is excellent!!! I highly recommend it. I'm not sure about the rest of the country, or in other parts of the world, but here in the S.F. Bay Area, drive-in theatres are, for the most part, gone. Yes, I realise the impact of bright, high quality sound, multi-plex theatres. And, the incredible quality of home theatre systems,...but for a real fun night out with friends and family,...nothing beats the drive-in. Besides, as far as sound quality is concerned, the Solano feeds the sound to your cars FM radio,...and most all newer cars have excellent stereo systems. We even got to see the local fireworks at the same time,...so we didn't miss out. As an adult, I've seen the closing of over four large drive-ins. From my youth,...probably another four to five have disappeared. Land values going up, the before mentioned other entertainment options, and high crime problems are, I'm sure, the leading factors to their closings. One drive-in left,...but for how long? But, to end on a high note,...if I could afford it,...I'd buy all my friends 4x4's,...another fun activity in the summer months. :O)
