If I have to pick just one, it would be going to the beach which was across the street from us and enjoying all the activities that went on each day. I usually went with my cousins ( who lived next door to me) and sometimes we'd just walk over or ride our bikes. I still remember all those "sandy/crunchy" sandwhiches we ate everyday. So many memories there...

That was a memory I love the beach, I have a black and white
picture of me cover with sand all except my head.

I also remember Ice skating in the winter time on the inlet. That's when we had real cold winters! My brothers used to test the waters first, to make sure it was safe and that know one would fall in. I do remember one of my brothers going through the ice and having to get pulled out. We must have been crazy then, but it sure seemed like alot of fun back then. I do know I wouldn't want my kids doing that!

Camping. Any camping. We camped a lot. Ingrained in my memory are the late night camp fires, the early morning clanking of pots and pans as mom got up and made coffee, cooked bacon and generally had a little 'me' time before everyone else got up. We wewnt to many of the US National Parks, so I couldn't separate them for you, but all were wonderful memories. We were the Brady Bunch, 6 kis, mom and dad. What experiences to bring us all close.

That sounds wonderful!
I remember my skates and having to have
the key to put them on, My brothers would use
them later for a race car wheels, then I would
get another pair later.

I have tons of great memories growing up on a farm in central Iowa. A highlight was showing Hereford steers and heifers at the Iowa State Fair. It was a lot of work, but very rewarding.
