I can finally leave a comment. Summer vacation has arrived. Driving a school bus does have some advantages. I still get summers off to enjoy the sunshine and the fresh air. I get to go to the beach with my friends and sometimes sit by a fire in my back yard.
I am glad I grew up when I did and not in today’s totally paranoid society. We were outside from breakfast until supper, then back out again until after dark. Hunting for frogs by day searching for fireflies by night. When I got older a perfect day was having a friend over to swim in the pool and see what shapes the clouds would form into. Our imaginations were always hard at work.

Great post. We stayed out until it got dark and we couldn’t see each other in the dark (we lived in the countryside. Those were the days. 🙂

We used to ride our bikes all over town back then, and the small community theater played kid movies like “Benji” and “Herbie” that would bring all the kids together during film time. Parent and babysitters would drop us all off for those four hours (double feature) of a theater filled with nothing but kids. And of course, already mentioned, there was all the sprinkler hopping and school pool play. I lived on one hell of a hill so it was a great one for bikes and skateboards! Oh yeah. 😉 Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

You nailed my summer memories to a “T,” Kristen! The only thing I would add is a week spent with my grandparents playing cards, usually campling at the beach! Oh yeah, and picking wild blackberries at the end of summer to make pies and jam- yes, barefoot and in shorts in the berry briars! Until we jumped in the pool afterwards, we could never tell which scratches were cuts from the thorns and which were berry juice smeared all over us from snacking along the way!

I didn’t like field day either. I wrote a post about it last week when my boys came home from their field day looking like sad little puppies. As I teacher, it did feel “like prison guards trying to keep the inmates calm” for the last couple of weeks. Love that comparison! I am happy it is finally summer!
