A word to the younger generation: Your grandmother wore very mini mini skirts, tall boots, and bell bottom jeans. She went to Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Fleetwood Mac, and The Rolling Stones concerts. She drove a mini car, rode motorcycles, and fast scooters. She used to smoke and drink whiskey and gin & tonics. She would sneak in at 4 am and still make it to work the next day. So as cool as you think you are... you'll never be as cool as your grandma!! #grandparents #1960s image
