In the neighborhood I grew up in there were only a few houses (on the edge of town) and still lots of open space and wooded area. Now all filled in with trimmed lawns and modern-looking houses. I miss my bare-foot running areas.
Everyone knew each other, the kids all played together and ran all over, no one locked their doors, kids in and out of everyone else's houses, no cell phones to track the kids down. We all just meandered back home around dinner time on our own.
No I cant! :sad: Not wherever I want! They don't exist anymore. The fields and hills that were my childhood stomping grounds, the old tree that still had the remains of an old treehouse, the old remains of what use to be a fence with a huge lilac bush where the ground behind was covered with flowers that I would lay in and hide away for what felt like hours. All nicely manicured lawns and A-frame and contemporary houses now.
If you dont find something positive now you will leave me sad
