Enjoyed you sharing your memories Roy. We are all right there with you!! I was just doing a lot walking Saturday , shoes on of course. But I can upon a beautifully manicured lawn, yep, I took off my shoes and strolled across that yard, I was a kid again for brief moment!! By the way, Can't go wrong with Jan as your Friend :) Hugs Jan

I agree 100%. Barefoot on a new mown lawn and being friends with Jan will both put a smile on your face.

Thank you Linda I am often accused of living in the past, but most of us who remember those younger days, have no problem with that.

Welcome Roy. And although I am a female, I can relate, as I graduated from high school in 1965. So I would say we’re close to the same age.

Great job! I thoroughly enjoyed it! Blessings to you, sir……

My first attempt at writing more than a sentence in many years. I was just hoping not to embarrass Jan for asking me to take a stab at writing.
