SummerTime

Is it just me that remembers long hot summers as a kid?

I remember playing baseball in the street and throwing the football around with my friends. I had a good time in the summer, especially as there was no school, and that meant more time to be a kid and enjoy all the fun stuff that comes with the summertime.

Summer is always great. I started playing basketball one summer and reached a very good level in the sport. Now I try to play on the court at least three times a week ...

Summertime in New Jersey was playing wiffle ball until we broke all the balls we had at home (my Father owned a store that sold them so we replenished easily), throwing a hard ball around in the street, heading down to the docks to see what the boats caught at around 4 PM, walking to the beach and sneaking on without paying the daily fee (and getting caught doing that half the time), going to the boardwalk to people watch and mowing the lawn with a push lawnmower that should be illegal to own if you had any decent sized property.

Best childhood ever.
