What a beautiful post about your childhood memories, complete with all the photos from back then. Which back in the 50s and 60s was not a given - unlike today.

It was amazing to read how different your upbringing was with your family so tied to nature. I'm sure it was tough and no-fun at times but overall so worth it. That's at least how I remember my childhood, many things in your post remind me of it.

Thank you for sharing yours.
