A little Ohio Valley nostalgia...
When I was a child growing up in Steubenville, I remember seeing Norman Elder , the Castle Keeper from Chiller Theater around town. He would drive around in his Volkswagen Thing, and I thought it was the coolest vehicle I had ever seen!
I can still picture it today. Every time I saw him cruising through town in that Volkswagen Thing, I was fascinated. Ever since then, I've wanted one of my own. It's amazing how a simple childhood memory can stay with you for a lifetime.
For those of us who grew up in the Ohio Valley, Norman Elder wasn't just a character on television—he was part of our community. Those are the kinds of memories that make me smile every time I think about them.
Does anyone else remember seeing Norman driving his Volkswagen Thing around Steubenville? Or am I the only one who thought it was the coolest ride in town? I'd love to hear your memories!
Good morning friends, happy hump day
