Historical Memory
It was July twentieth, nineteen sixty-nine. I had taken my date to the
local drive-in. Sometime around ten thirty, the screen went black and
people began walking toward the concession stand. We got out and followed
them, only to find we were part of a large crowd staring at a small black
and white television which was perched on the roof. I ran to the snack
bar and bought a Moon Pie. There we stood at ten fifty six as Neil Armstrong
took his first steps onto the surface of the moon. We shared a moment
in history and a "Moon Pie Memory."
