About Back In Time . .
.
About fifteen years ago, I found that I
was working 16-18 hours a day, 6-7 days each week, and even when not at
"work", my mind was still there. There was no way I could take the time
to go to the Bahamas or Cancun, much less places of further distance,
where I could totally relax.
Then I discovered what I call the
"Back In Time" Vacation. On a cold
and wet January evening while having dinner in a restaurant decorated with
old memorabilia, a song (Hello Stranger) came on the jukebox. All of a
sudden, I was transported to Atlantic Beach, North Carolina, at the
Pavilion. It was the summer of 1963—no deadlines, no pressures. For a
while. . .I was on vacation. The combination of decoration and music
enabled me to travel "Back In Time"
and I relaxed for the first time in years!
Over the next few months, I transformed
my back porch into my very own "Back In Time"
vacation place. I purchased a jukebox, some diner booths, an old Coke
machine, and a few advertising signs. Gradually, it became easier to
"travel"—a couple of songs on the jukebox, a beverage (my Coke machine
has beer!!) and my mind was on vacation. As I enjoyed my back porch more
and more, I started to entertain at home more frequently. I learned that
by selecting records my guests would remember from their teens, I could
take them "Back In Time" too!
So this is how
Back In Time, the business, evolved. Helping others
