Flashback

Things I miss about growing up…
·        Corning swim team.  I have some great memories from the 12 summers I spent down at the pool.
·         Saturday morning Loony Tunes.  We didn’t watch too much TV when we were younger but I do remember enjoying our Saturday morning shows cozied-up on the floor.
·         Quad rides in the olive orchard.  I always had to try and keep up with the boys.
·         Finding pollywogs in the creek during summer – then finding that they turn into frogs shortly thereafter.
·         Dress up and performances for family.  Typically this involved an invitation, a little MC’ing and a full-on choreographed dance.
·         Progress reports.  I know weird, but sometimes we need a little reassurance in our lives that we’re “Good” or even just “Satisfactory.”
·         My two-story play house which I painted myself.
·         Playdates with friends.
·         Going to Grandma and Grandpa’s to swim and also to get ice-cream sandwiches.
·         The list goes could go on, but for now, these are a few of my fondest J

  1. I think I have memories of almost all of these with you. Great memories, my friend. I'd have to add house-boating to that as well. :)

  2. For sure - the Houseboat deserves it's own post :)
