Who remembers the Ford Country Squire Station Wagon? It was our version of the minivan. We called the seating “the way back seats”. Makes sense since there was no known name for that seating back then. I don’t remember if the nauseous feeling riding in the “way back seats” was from the exhaust fumes getting in, or the cigarette fumes from my parents in the front seat. Maybe it was facing the wrong direction while driving. Either way, I still fought my brothers to sit in the “way back”! I remember the trips to the stores, the first time at the carnival, and even a drive-in movie! Did your family have a station wagon? What memories are associated with it?
