I am having so much fun walking and talking with everyone! I think we would have had so-o-o much fun together as kids😀
Did anybody play with Jacks? We used a golf ball instead of the rubber ball that came with the set, and all of us girls had fingernails that were well worn down on one side from playing on the smooth concrete porches.
I hope everybody has good weather for walking this week.

Me, too, @rosemarya and @jude07! This group of enterprising walker/talkers would have shared some incredibly fun times together as kids...and even as adults-in-person, too! We girls also played jacks together but never remember any of the neighborhood boys joining in on that. Another favorite was pick-up-sticks. Both were good for developing hand dexterity but of course that never entered our minds; we just liked to play. I couldn't find a set of jacks to buy so ordered a set and taught my grand to play when they came to visit. Later bought a bean bag toss that both grands and I enjoyed in the yard. Anyone else for either of those? How cute that older sisters had to "remind you", Jude that only one bounce was allowed! Smiles to all
