You cut through your neighbors yard on your motorcycle with a .22 and an ax too? I sure miss those days. If a kid did that nowadays, they would be arrested and beaten severely.

I know it. It is one of the reasons I now live in the same neighborhood that I grew up in. I know many of my neighbors from way back when, so they love seeing my kids. It is also one of the big reasons we are buying that other bigger house down the street. It is on two and a half acres right by a creek on a dead end street. My kids will be able to run all over the place.

And the people who live there now are real jerks about the path along the creek, posting private property signs and stuff. I want to go back to the good old days, and let all my neighbors walk along it if they want.

The first thing I'm gonna do after we close is tear that private property sign down. I spent my whole childhood back there in the woods. I want others to enjoy it, too.

And no, I never ran around the neighborhood with an ax, psycho boy.

My last day senior year in H.S., someone rode a motorcyle thru the front door all the way thru school and right out the back door.

The teachers just laughed. Ahh, for the good old days when all the kids in the neighborhood knew and played with eachother and no one freaked out over a ornery kid. When yards were just huge playgrounds for baseball, statue, jump rope, war, Spud, Capture the Flag, plays, hopscotch, bikes, bike trails, forts, etc. etc. See how far we've come?
