this is the place
where i once lived
basement tv, saturday sugar
cereal, endless ping pong
mowing the lawn and
shooting driveway basketball hoops
sledding as a child
reading by the fireplace
blasting the beasties upstairs
on the old stereo
ice cream birthday cakes
hide and go seek
learning how to shave
and juggle bean bags
talent shows with sunglasses
and the elvis moves
staring at jumping squirrels
outside my bedroom window
a home once ours
now is no more
This is kind of a random post, but I was pretty excited to find this vintage license plate. My home state is Virginia, 1972 is my birth year, and 2010 is my son’s. E is also the first initial of my wife’s name.
This is the creek that I could walk to from my childhood home. I would regularly hike it down to the Potomac River.
This was a fun (and funny) 11th grade tradition from 1990.
