Here's mine - Seneca Falls, NY.
It's making me homesick.

I can see the woods behind the neighbor's house where we used to go play Truth or Dare...
I can trace my walk to school, and the lawn we used to cut through (with the cranky guy who would yell "hey kids! get off my lawn!")

I see the gully in front of my best friend's house where we used to do stupid things with our bikes and ramps...

I see the football bleachers where we'd climb fences on Saturday mornings after games to go look for change that fell out of people's pockets ( I found a dollar bill once!).

I see the woods behind the high school where my friends and I would go to catch garter snakes.

I see Tom Dalton's house. Jennifer A. and Jennifer M. and I all had crushes on him (he was a bad boy) and we'd ride our bikes past his house at least once a week in 5th grade.

I see the supermarket where Gloria and I would buy Diet Coke, popcorn and Betty Crocker frosting for our sleepovers.

Wow. Crazy memories.
