Wasn't it grand? We took off for hours and came home when we were hungry. The dime store (remember those?) and ice cream parlor were favorite destinations when we felt flush. Otherwise it was vacant lots to play cops & robbers or cowboys & Indians. I found myself trying to explain cowboys & Indians to my sons recently; they were clueless.
