Everywh...Yes we walked or rode our bikes all over. Everywhere. We had to be home before dark or at supper time. Mom's decision and if it was summer or not. I feel so sorry for the kids today. Sheltered so because of the times. There were 'bad guys' back then too but not as many?? We were so innocent. Also living in a small town we knew someone on every street and most knew our family too. If we would ever do anything bad someone was sure to let our parents know!! We played kick the can and hide and seek under the corner street light at night. Jacks, dolls, store, school, etc etc. We had cap guns and little ironing boards and irons too. We had little metal sinks, stoves and refrigerators.. If you didn't have one a neighbor or an older sister did. We played some sort of make believe all the time. The 5 and 10cent stores were falloff good things. Even 10c was not available at times but there was plenty to look at..and the store windows! The displays every day they showed. At Christmas..wow! Those windows were a wonder !! Mechanical Santa and things for the parents and kids to look at and wish for. :) Toys were only in the department store or the hardware store during the holidays. The aluminum tinsel, the real pine wreaths and trees the bubble lights on the tree. What fun! What great memories aren't they.

Thank you! <br /><br />Today is my first time by your blog,(I found the address at Lynn's), and tonight I have read my way back to here! I am just about half way between your and Lynn's age having been born in 1951. So I can enjoy and remember both of your memories as mine are similar to them.<br /><br />I have been reading Lynn's blog for about 4 years and have enjoyed seeing a peek now and then your your home and life. So spending some time here with you is something I look forward to!<br /><br />See you again soon,<br /> ❤ <br />Lily, WA, USAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-54618539419669411092013-07-22T18:11:04.136-07:002013-07-22T18:11:04.136-07:00Dear Terry,

Ha...and that same haircut!!<br /><br />Back then, we played in the woods alot, and could even see neighborhood kids playing there too. I remember that when I was in first grade. It was always safe to walk up town and around! They were better/safer days!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
