these are all awesome.

i know every generation says, "kids these days..." but shite kids these days definitely miss out on all that stuff, even a lot of the ones in the country. we had video games and tv obviously, but the emphasis was always outdoors. mostly out of natural boyhood but also due to parents not letting us sit inside all day.

Back in the early 80's I would just hang out by myself at the Pits, just inside the treeline, and watch the boys play, cut up, and ride bikes.

I was all over Tara when it was woods, then clearing and dirt roads. Also we would drive Airline Highway to Sorrento then get on I-10 towards NO when it was just being cleared and was dirt and killed truckloads of mallards.

My older siblings who were hippies and original hippies not these newfangled wanna be hippies, used to take me to Neddies Pond which was back in the woods where SAMs and Wal Mart are on Seigan. It was a huge deep barrow pit with trails all over cut through the woods and was like a commune. People hanging out drinking, smoking dope, riding motorcycles and quite a few that lived back there. That was a cool place.

And my daughter isn't into video games. She hangs out in the woods and creeks now with her Mucks and camo and her 17 calibar Henry lever action. I'm glad to see that especially since she's a girl and has a whole group of them that do not want to be inside and are not afraid to get dirty.
