We dialed 4 numbers to reach our neighbors. We did not have a party line, but many of our neighbors did. And, yes we dialed! I do remember the first push button phone.

"Outland?" That was so recent! What about "Henry," and "Dondi" and "Little Iodine?"
By the way, my telephone exchange was Yorktown.
