[quote=Anonymous]Grew up on a farm. In the summer, we had chores from about dawn to until about noon, then we were mostly on our own until just before dark when we had to do the evening chores. From noon until almost dark, we climbed trees, built forts, jumped from the hay mow in the barn to the hay pile below, hunted for arrowheads, made stuff up, played cow-pie football and baseball with the neighbor kids, built dams in the creek, caught crawdads, rode horses (and occasionally cows, pigs, and sheep, and tried to ride goats - they were too smart for us.) Thinking about it now, it was a pretty neat way to grow up. [/quote]
