Something For Someone That Has It All

[Mr70]

There's an abondonded one of these over here in Addison Il.
I think ours was a Nike Missle base in the 1950's.
It was a big draw for kids and cars with dates,in the mid 1970's..It was located between an industrial area and a now defuct drive-in theater(Sky Hi),and because of that soon got the moniker,Make out Base.
As kids we used to watch all these whacked musclecars w/sidepipes pull into it,and then start rocking back & forth.
We rode around it on our huffy bikes & Raleigh choppers and would stare down the missle silos and see nothing but rats & snakes in them.Rows of deserted barracks too.
Cops would drive up to shew us away,but after a while grew tired of it,as every few feet there was a quonset hut or chained fence we could scatter into or under,and make them come in and get us.Those were some fun times..
