6. ice cream
7. green grass& dandelions
8. playing outside till we had to come in
9. sleepovers
10. Watermelon
11. corn on the cob
12. clam bakes
13. Rocky point
14. Sandy Beach
15. eating mint out of Mrs Woods garden
16. switching bedrooms with my sisters

That was so nice to read and go back to that time for a minute. It was so simple, but how much fun we had, and what a nice feeling you get thinking back. The cave was a Forsynthia(? sp) bush. How times have changed. Love ya Cheryl
Thanks Cher! and thanks for remembering the name of the bush!
