rock fights.

Actual fights consisting of groups of kids throwing rocks at each other as hard as we could.

Yep. We held our rock fights in the woods to add to the element of surprise.

Also: hitting rolls of caps with a hammer.

Creepy crawlers (the heating pan went up to about 600 degrees.

And, of course, running or riding our bikes behind the DDT mosquito fogger.

those caps were fun, but when these came out it was a game changer regarding noise level

Yea, they were great. Nothing better to kill all kinds of bugs. Now we have ticks and lyme disease.

Oh man, I had forgotten about that. In fact, that picture is an exact representation of what we did! We'd hear the "fogger" coming and all scream running around behind it, sometimes bumping into each other.
