3 months. 3 months off from school. Three months with friends. As kids, messing around with sand piles with army men and building shacks in the woods we called “club houses.” Wandering all over the place and hanging out. As high schoolers, working in the hay fields for money, exploring on our bikes, swimming, building cars, and growing interest in girls. The only thing good about the end of summer recess was the start of football season, and the great adventure that brought. Twas the “good old days” and we knew it not. :)
Retirement is JUST like this. I still cannot believe I am free. It’s like being thirteen with a bank account, a car and a house where no parents are expected back at any time.

Poor flowers. Never saw the end coming. Wonder if Wallace is going to feel like that in a few weeks…

I feel bad for the kids who have to start school in August and not in September as it used to be.
