Thank you! It was magical, wasn't it? Could you imagine allowing a 7-year-old to ride off into traffic alone on a bike nowadays?

Your writing takes me right back to my own childhood. A magical time, indeed.

Loved this, as well. Can't wait to show you how similar- AND how juxtaposed- our two childhoods were.

Your comments are always very insightful. Thank you for that. I also feel sorry for children growing up today, especially because the long-term future of our nation and world doesn't appear to be particularly bright.
