I was lucky like Red..I had three different playgrounds with three different size swings in the 1960’s to choose from..The biggest was 12 feet high with 10 feet chains..I could wind it up and spin for a minute both ways..Aw yes the lazy hazy Saturdays when a kid could just be…….a kid..

I like Red’s idea of a swinging weekend!

I can do that also and not get sick. After all, I’m a figure-skater. Spinning is what we figure-skaters do best!

I used to do that all the time, and never got sick. Now I have trouble getting up from a chair without getting dizzy.

Loved doing that! I’d get sick now.

I miss “Red Rover”, snowball fights, sandlot baseball, marbles anywhere and all the other non-PC stuff.
Worse, I can’t do ’em anyway.

We were easily amused back then…

I did that as a child. I thought it was fun! It was one of many things I did as a child that I no longer understand why I thought it was fun.
