Time flies when you live in hyperspace. Today is the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars being released and it certainly seems like a long time ago in a galaxy far away from where I sit today.
The movie occupied a big part of my summer entertainment that year. I was working at an outdoor drama that summer (Unto These Hills) and on our day off (Sunday, I recall) a bunch of us piled into a van and headed into Asheville, NC to catch the movie. I think we saw it twice that day. And I think we made two other trips to see it again that summer.
I also fondly remember nights after the show had completed where we got little inebriated and headed down to the stage, put the soundtrack on the theatre's booming sound system and laid on the sand stage watching meteor showers.
Fond memories of a fun time.
