Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I don't really remember Sky King either. The name is familiar though. We must all be fairly close in age. I'm 51. Oh yea, that hole to China but we couldn't dig much in the yard but down the street was an empty lot with a hill in it & we sure dug down there. There were some trees too that we would climb. OK, my brothers could climb I attempted it. LOL I was clumbsy then & not the athletic type. I could ride my bike with the best of them & I spent as much time at the roller rink as my little $3 allowance would spare. We had a local run down show not too many blocks away & Sunday matinees were about 25 or 35 cents....Way different than now a days & it's $8 or $9 to get in to see some crap with way too much cleavage & no plot. grannylunatic@... __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 , I was a really good tree climber, I was actually better than my brothers at it, they were both a year a part, and younger than me. so that left me with the advantage over them, or at least till they became teens then the battle was lost, they were just stronger than me. We own a small farm here in TN, and we grew corn, and tobacco. Thankfully I didn't have to do a lot of the manual labor, but it was my job to drive the tractor, and I'd accidently let off the clutch to fast and the wagon would jerk and knock over what they had gathered.. lol I didn't do it on purpose, but they would bad mouth me till I'd had enough then I'd jump off the tractor and the battle was on.. we did more fighting than we did working, but hey that's what we did for fun.. lol T -- Re: Flicka I don't really remember Sky King either.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Theresa I grew up in the city but my grandparents were all from Kentucky. My dad's grandfather & his uncles & aunts still lived down there so we got to go every summer for a week & visit. It was so cool for a city kid to see the cows & stuff. One of my dad's uncles had a dairy farm. We were all pretty small kids & they were showing us the automatic milking of the cows when one let loose with a big ole poop & it hit that concrete platform the cow was on. It splattered all over the place including us city kids. LOL 40 years later it still cracks me up. grannylunatic@... __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
