Great thread and it's making me wish I was a kid again...
For me it was...
-playing with Barbies on a blanket under the willow tree
-catching fireflies in a jar at night
-going for a swim to cool off just before dark (we lived on a lake) then going home and sitting on the porch in our searsucker shorty pajamas watching for shooting stars
-going to the "haunted house" in the woods by the lake and scaring ourselves silly and running all the way home
-running through the hose
-selling lemonade and when nobody bought any, giving some away and drinking the rest ourselves.
-going to camp
Oh, stop me now, I could go on forever. What wonderful memories this brings back to me. I think I'll put my jammies on and sit on my back deck tonight, drinking soda and watching for shooting stars...just because I can.
Thanks again, this has been a great tour through nostalgia for me.
Hugs
