This memory comes from growing up in a Chicago suburb -

running in the "cloud" behind the mosquito sprayer truck in the summer.

(And they tell me to worry about xylene)

"Banana" bicycle seats
Drinking straws put onto bike spokes
Sport card games (longsies, flipsies,...)
Puff n' stuff (OK I'm not older than dirt - but it was a way long time ago)
friendly public bus drivers
Clogs in school and then rules forbidding those noisy things in school
REAL SNOW STORMS (like 6 FEET overnight)

Being less than 10 yrs old and able to play outside past dark - and no one
(including you) worried about abductors and other creeps

The OLD days were GOOD old days in many ways.
