Oh Yeah...

Growing up near Valley Forge, Pa.

Raking leaves into huge piles every day in the fall.

God how I loved that. Remember how you would lay in those leaves and smell them as you made forts and such out of them?

Burning leaves.. You know, I'm leaving Florida in the next year to return to the house that I grew up in.

Remember when sometimes you got so much candy that you had to go home and empty your bag?

Scorpios like me remember Halloween and mischief night very well.
Going to school, learning the 3 R's and American history.

What happened to that?
