I've been following My Time Tunnel on YouTube and ran across his latest video. Michael, who runs that channel, lives in Benton City and recently went to Bickleton for a cheeseburger.

Drive all the way to Bickleton for a cheeseburger? You betcha! My wife and I have made the 80-minute trip more than once and we need to do it more often. It's a relaxing drive and it's cool when you step back in time as you enter the Bluebird Inn.

Michael's video is below, followed by some pics that I took during my last visit to the Bluebird Capital Of the World.

After our exhausting 70 min drive from West Richland, we were parched and starving! Ha! The Bluebird Inn was just the ticket for our Sunday excursion.

On the inside, I felt right at home, having grown up in small-town Montana.

LOOK: Things from the year you were born that don't exist anymore

The iconic (and at times silly) toys, technologies, and electronics have been usurped since their grand entrance, either by advances in technology or breakthroughs in common sense. See how many things on this list trigger childhood memories—and which ones were here and gone so fast you missed them entirely.
