After my walk/run today, I was stretching on the porch and my thoughts turned to this swing. This swing brings back many memories. If anyone were to ask me what object played an important part in my life...it would be this swing. This swing rocked friendships, love, laughter, secrets, and dreams.
Many, many memories come to mind as I write about this beloved swing...
*Eating Fudgesicles with Lars while Grandma Lorraine rocked us.
*Meeting Jeff Lee and Scott Young for the first time...they were on their Big Wheels.
*Reading books that my mom had bought for my cousin, Katie and I.
*Watching summer thunder/rain storms with Lars.
*Rocking with Grandpa and watching the neighborhood go by.
*Playing with Barbies with Lyndsi.
*Listening to New Kids on the Block and Vanilla Ice.
*Eating Rainbow Snows or Slurpees with Ang, Lou and Ash.
*Being picked on by Scott Y, Chad W, and Michael C.
*Dreaming of the future with Kathy.
Does anybody wanna come Swing with me?

Good times Sig! Love the memories at your Grandpa's house. It was crazy to go there the other day and have a flood of memories come back. Hope I can see you soon!
I want to swing! That actually sounds kind of funny if you know what "swingers" are, but I guess it doesn't matter because you're not married. Do you even know what I"m talking about? Good times on that front porch
I totally forgot about that piece of our childhood. You are such a writer. I love what that little swing represents...memories that last forever. To the moon and back :)
