re: Building Forts...Classic Childhood Pastime

Had forts all over. Both grandparents' houses and a couple accessible from mine. Had one behind a friend's house stacked with Playboys. We were about 10.
Mom came home one day from the grocery and I had made "steps" up a tree in the back yard with nails (just like dad did) and my 8 yr old brother was stuck up on a limb 20' off the ground. He'd been up there a while, so while waiting on dad to get home to fix it I had somehow gotten him a fishing rod up in the tree and I'd hook a canteen, a ziploc of cheetos, and a blanket to sit on onto a chartreuse H&H that he'd reel them up with.
