Heads or Tails - Share A Summer Time Memory

Over at Heads or Tails we were asked to write about a Summertime Memory.

There are so many tiny tidbits so I am going to bullet point a bunch of summers in no particular order.
  • Summer at Red Pond with my Mom, Dad and Sisters. There is nothing like eating breakfast cooked over a BBQ.
  • Ice cream at Jamos.
  • Heading down the Jersey Shore with my girlfriends.
  • Wildwood's "watch the Tram Car Please"
  • Summer at my cousin Carol's in Staten Island.
  • Hanging at the lake with my husband and kids last year.
  • Drive in Movies with my parents.
  • Vermont with my very first best friend Peggy and learning how to swim.
  • Bike riding all over the universe with my sisters on summer vacation.
  • Going to the park all day and laying on the merry-go-r0und spinning around until I thought I was going to puke.
  • Bunking down in one room to sleep because there was only 1 air conditioner and loving every minute of it.
  • Spending a summer with my cousins in Long Island and feeling like I was part of a big family, living with a mother and a father.
  • Teaching bible school with a bunch of other teens and having the best time.
  • Drinking beers out of a trunk and listening to music in the swamps of New Jersey.
  • Camping for 2 nights in the back of my boyfriend's car with a bunch of people I didn't know and having the time of my life listening to Creedence Clearwater and Springsteen all weekend long. I can't listen to either of them and not think about that crazy weekend.

  2. Drive-in movies! They were great, weren't they? My parents would pop a huge pot of popcorn, we'd get a gallon of A&W rootbeer, and then off we'd go, dressed in our pjs...

    Kids today don't know what they've missed out on.
