Drive-In Date

Remember the old drive-in in Goleta? Yup, the one that has been closed for 19 years! Well, last night it reopened for a special fundrasier for Direct Relief International to benefit Haiti. The classic "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" was the featured film. I'd never gotten to go to a drive-in before it closed so Brian and I decided to make it a date. We grabbed some grub to go from the Chicken Ranch and rolled up in our mini-van. I highly suggest the mini-van for viewing a drive-in movie- the seats are so comfortable! It was such a great atmosphere at the drive-in. There were classic cars, lawn chairs, beer cozies, blankets, and parents waxing nostalgia with their kids. 
Fun Fact: My Auntie Kris and Uncle Tim can be seen in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" in the opening scene when Ferris is watching MTV. (They were the couple on the MTV commercial!)

Oh yum, you got Chicken Ranch too! I heard that they might try to make this a regular thing. Did you hear anything about that when you went?
