I did that as a kid. Let’s see. I climbed trees, went down the big slides, played baseball, swinging on the big swings, played in our farm ponds wearing dresses, skirts/blouses. Oh, rode bikes, too. Never stopped any of us. A much simpler time. BTW, as a college student, we wore dressy clothes to football games. I remember getting in a big discussion with my high school senior English teacher about that . She was all for it but I thought it was awful. At some games, we had to park a long way from the stadium. Then, one of my dorms was on the other side of the campus from the stadium. It was awful walking in heels that far plus the early games were in very hot weather. That was what we did back then. All in all, we have wonderful memories of our days at State. Go Bulldogs. Miss those days.
Love your memoirs!
It was a simple time. It was a good time.
Will we ever see the likes again?
