For anyone who remembers drive-ins from your childhood, you'll love coming here. The parking lots are mostly grass, so it's easy to get out of the car and find a place to sit or lie down to watch the movie.

Getting in and out is really easy, courteous drivers, lots of families, etc.

I hadn't been to one in so long that I didn't realize that now you get to tune into a radio station to hear the audio, which was kind of fun.

Kids all fell asleep halfway through the movie, which was the only downside....but they all took away great memories from the outing.

One word of advice, and granted we we in a car with an old battery, keeping your car powered up enough to run the radio does put a little drain on your battery, so you may want to prepare by bringing another device to play the audio with (battery powered stereo system) - but then again, nobody else had this problem, and we knew we needed a new car battery beforehand. :-)

Looking forward to going again with my three daughters this year....more
