After using a rock to explode all the caps, I would smell the paper. Loved it!

Also love the smell of burnt matches.

I'm so old I remember making zip guns from bicycle spokes, gun powder, and a piece of bird shot from a shotgun shell.

Did the neighbors duck behind whatever they were close to when you showed up with that?

I remember when kids graduated high school and either got a job, joined the service or went to college and basically moved out of their parents' house.

We couldn't wait to leave.

It wasn't long after that when they finished college, they moved back in.

True, but I haven't gotten more than 15 miles from where I grew up.

It wasn't long after that when they finished college, they moved back in.

We got lucky. Son moved back for 6 months after a break up. Daughter has been on her own ever since graduating.

I didn’t even finish college. I just went straight to work and never looked back cause I didn’t like school.

Not to mention…Both my parents have recently retired and my sis moved to AZ a few years ago so I’m the only one still around here to help with whatever’s needed.
