When Kids Were Allowed to Be Kids, Vol. 1

All of the following stories were written about actual events that happened in my life while growing up in the small Vermont town of Peacham. I realize time has a way of changing some of the minor details but the overall picture will remain unchanged. I have written all of these stories as I remember them happening or in some instances as they were told to me. There is no order in which these stories appear; I write them as they return to my memory. So with that being said, please keep in mind, one store may be about a time when I was very young and the next about my teenage years. Also, in some of the stories, the names have been changed to protect the guilty. Please take a few minutes to make yourself comfortable and let the following pages take you back in time. Back to a time different than the one we have now, a time before electronic games took over kid’s lives. A time when kids were not only allowed to make up games they wanted to play but also the rules. It was also a time when kids had to make the things they wanted to play with……I truly hope you enjoy reading about life during the late fifties and all through the sixties as much as I enjoyed living them.
