Many great memories, and a few scars. Climbing out on the WW2 tank gun barrel at the local park. Exploring the river bottoms solo. Mucking out a horse shed to make a playhouse. Building shelters with hay bales. Riding in the back of pickups and farm trucks. Harvesting potatoes on a combine that claimed a few fingers of workers. Skating on frozen ponds. Daredevil rides on snow saucers. Plucking and eating water cress right from the spring.

Oh yeah. I burned down my sisters playhouse with my chemistry set, just added more gas until it blew. That sorta ended my mad scientist days...until High School anyway.
