I'm still old enough to remember the Salem drive-in where the Santiam 11-plex is currently located. Last time I went, the double-feature was "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" and "Last Action Hero".

Too bad streaming killed those businesses. Guess it's up to me to construct a neighborhood movie in the park situation. Of course, I'd be tempted to run the old classics, like the original Little Mermaid, and not the new one .

Come to think of it, there's a maple tree that might facilitate hanging a screen, and a hill steep enough that everyone would be able to see. I'll have to scout this tonight.
