It was such a different time than what kids today experience and yet it really wasn't that long ago. Being the youngest child of the youngest child (and both having children late in life), I experienced many things even people my own age thought was "old"....like swimming with the cows and crank ice cream and such. But I never knew the silent movies or pianos in gazebos. I bet that was amazing. I do remember buying my first pair of jeans...it was a religious experience! Ha! I hate to sew even today! And my grandparents didn't have indoor plumbing until I was about 12 or so. YiKes! Even then there was no bathtub. I learned ALL kinds of things spending time with them!Lesia Flynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17961313800912097829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018633413564074437.post-4706235237541101192012-06-14T13:40:28.075-05:002012-06-14T13:40:28.075-05:00I guess in this day and age, Farmer's Markets ...I guess in this day and age, Farmer's Markets are the biggest delight for those of us that are unable to grown our own veggies and fruits.<br />But just a bit of when I was a "child", wayyyyyy back when! Mom would put a blanket under the huge tree out in the yard and I would take things out to play with under the shade in the heat of the day! No electricity, no cool! My poor Mom had to continue to work inside, had to be miserable. Never remember her complaining, quite a Mom!<br />Other things, dips in the pond with the cows...lol<br />Chunks of ice chipped off the block of ice in the ice box, and of course homemade ice cream cranked out on special occasions!!<br />Oh and of course one of my favorites, going barefoot all the time.<br />Oh yes, must add this, going to the near by town that on Saturday evenings had silent movies playing in their park with a piano in the gazebo playing with the show. I thought that was absolutely fantastic! Well, unless you had to stand in line to go to the privy, which was not too cool or delightful. <br />Oh, and sundresses for myself and my Mom had a few dresses that were see through, but now that I am older, I am sure the slips and hose took away the coolness of all that.<br />Okay, I will quit remembering the old days, but maybe it was fun to hear about how summer was many years ago.....there is much more, but will spare you!!Billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10940833271280140540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018633413564074437.post-66197936463120578172012-06-14T12:17:02.161-05:002012-06-14T12:17:02.161-05:00Oh honey child!

I do like the long days and the fresh vegetables and fruit--though I do not grow my own. I can't. I've tried. I like flip flops and crop pants. But I don't like to be hot. And I am always having to iron.<br /><br />Now, in a short while, talk to me about fall. How I love fall.
