Is that like PF Flyers and eating Good and Plenty???:-)

Amazingly so we would eat fried Bologna Samdwiches, RC Colas and hotess cupcakes and we were skinny as twigs!

Playing hard is the key...

I loved those! My mom could actually make gravy out of fried bologna...delicious.

Our soft drinks consisted mainly of koolaid, because it was only a nickel a package. It was a major treat if you would get the occasional glass of Pepsi. We kids would savor every sip...:)

That's it! PF Flyers.

Picnics at Samuel Taylor park. Trying to dig a hole to China. Listening to sonic booms in the sky. Going out to play while it was raining- the creeks would be gushing, we'd come back covered in mud from head to toe and get hosed off before being allowed into the house. Buckeye fights. All manner of 'forts'. Staying up late while on a sleepover to watch "Creature Features". My friend's go-cart, with a Briggs and Stratton lawnmower engine in it and a broken steering wheel. Trick or Treating as Mechanised Goblins off of my friends fathers station wagon tailgate- we each got shopping bags worth of candy. Flying kites. Trying to find lost kites. Looking for firecrackers on the fifth of July, up and down Butterfield Road. Long hikes in the hills of Marin, looking for spent rifle casings, which make pretty good whistles. The smell of a candle scorching the inside of a pumpkin.
