In the 80's families didn't take elaborate summer vacations. Julie and Mel look back at their favorite summer activities as you Gen Xer's. They both have fond memories of trips to Bar Harbor, visiting Andre the Seal and holiday visits with family. As the school year comes to a close and the kids get a much-needed break, the Chicks are going to be on break for a few weeks themselves. So, catch up on any episodes you've missed and some of the highlights of this year on their social media

Sack races, three-legged races, and the - gasp - coveted ribbons that went along with these competitions. The last days of elementary and middle school usually involved lots of fun and games for Field Day in the 1980s. Julie and Mel reminisce about the end of school through the years, including the bittersweet final days of high school, their graduations and the memories of those celebrations.

What were the 80's and 90's without those songs we could sing along to as we pined for that crush? We had so many - from "Never Say Goodbye" from Bon Jovi, to "Hold On" from Richard Marx to "Angel" from Aerosmith - there are almost too many to name. Julie and Mel share their memories of the first special love songs they remember, from the ones they danced to at school dances and proms, to just the ones they couldn't help loving.
