I haven't thought about Cin City in a long time.  Those were the days.  And the drive in was fun.  It may have been the last drive in I went to.

I talked about the shopping experience I had this weekend with a friend. Cinderella  was a high class place to shop! 

My old home was directly across from the old Villa Italian mall.

"Look there,  that's the hospital I was born in."

Or more likely:

"See where that 30-story apartment building is? That's where the hospital I was born in used to be. "
