Cool. Route 66 used to go through New Mexico, we still have some parts of it in small towns but I-40 took most of it away.

When I started driving it was 25 to 33 cents a gallon and I am not really that old yet.

Hey! some of us women mow the lawn too.

Many of the bottled water brands sold today are really tap water. I remember several years ago one of the brands was forced to put something like "water from public sources" on their label. I started drinking bottled water regularly in the past few years only after COVID shutdown public water fountains.

I have lived in towns where the water was undrinkable and bottled water was what I used, but I was poor so it was less expensive to buy some reusable gallon bottles and go to the water store (yes, Midland, Tx had water stores) and fill my bottles up. I have kept bottles like that and keep them on hand, filled with filtered water. Now I can afford to have my own water filter system, and even though the city I live in now claims their water is safe, I filter it first because sometimes it comes out of the faucet full of rust. Now my goal is to quit using disposable plastic so I never buy bottled water.

Yes. A lot of people loved drinking water that came in a green glass bottle in those days.
I've forgotten the brand of that water though.
