Flashback to 1979


 "Did we really let our kids play around smoldering fires with a hacksaw?" my sister, Sandy and I remarked after recalling this picture. I guess we did, because here they are "up north" at Grandma and Grandpa's place in the woods.  That's my son, Kody, on the right and Sandy's son, Adam, on the left.  And that's Nate, her middle son, with the hacksaw.

Sandy and I are certain that we were watching them from afar, probably relaxing somewhere, maybe at the picnic table.  We could relax because "the woods" was such a perfect playground.   We didn't have to worry about them breaking anything, getting too noisy, or leaving any doors open.  They could get as dirty and as loud as they wanted to and no one even noticed.  Were we just a little bit too relaxed?  Hmmm....maybe so, but we both really like this picture!

  1. This picture is hilarious, Mom! I loved the post about New Years, too. I have been out of touch in Thailand. I will call you soon. Love you!
