My under-10 years. The years of catching polliwogs, salamanders, and ladybugs. Wearing snowsuits to play in the winter and skimpy swimsuits at Anthony's Pond in the summer. Skirts and dresses to school!
Watching Ed Sullivan, the Little Rascals, Leave it to Beaver, Superman, I Love Lucy and Howdy Doody on TV. Staying overnight at Gram's and bathing in her huge bath tub with the claw feet. Riding bikes and playing with Bev next door. Cousins to hang with and get into trouble with.
Going to the Adams Little League Field and participating in the funny hat parade or the costume parade. All of the kids in town would be at the playgrounds to play games and try to win the contests. 'Arts and Crafts' day was my favorite, especially lanyard-making day.
