Those hot summer days spent on my grandparents' farm and all the adventures I found through the fields and woods. Such innocent times! After our family moved to the Island, we moved around a lot but I had an imagination and could find my fun wherever I found myself. Here's to childhood and precious memories! I so enjoyed your post. You inspire me!

This sounds like the perfect childhood, and yet I can understand you craving the adventures that appeared in story books.

It's entrancing, worthy of being in a book. And I was not only right there with you as you went about your day, it took me back to my own childhood and visits to my grandparents' farm. And it brought back that yearning I grew up with, wishing I could stay longer instead of returning to the suburbs of Nashville. I don't think that yearning ever really left me.

We played in the empty lot next to our house, rode our bikes two blocks away to play at the park, roller skated. We had a swing set, and for several years an above ground pool. My mom wanted us to play outside and we did!<br /><br />Lovely memories, you shared today!Deanna Rabe - Creekside Cottage Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133684514103206137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-3505545672203928062018-08-13T16:16:33.653-06:002018-08-13T16:16:33.653-06:00I grew up in the suburbs so I enjoyed this country...I grew up in the suburbs so I enjoyed this country flashback.

I wonder what today's children will remember of their childhoods? I think many will have similar memories. <br />Thank you for your beautiful words that evoke so many wonderful memories.

However, we did play outside all day, only coming inside to eat and often taking our lunch outside and having a picnic. I think children are missing quite a lot today. <br /><br />This was a wonderful post and I could read your happiness all over it. I thank you for stirring my own sweet memories.
