I...Thank you Judy for all these wonderful memories. I sure enjoy reading them and brings back so many of my own living in David. Just before we moved to David the second time, John and I would go to the swimming pool shortly after it opened. Dad told us to go to the fountain and eat lunch. We thought this was a treat of a lifetime. He said to tell them to put it on his bill. We were amazed and had such good time getting acquainted with the David kids. Later when we moved there, we knew all the kids and loved all of them.

....another great story....
Every C...Dear Judy,<br /> <br />....another great story....<br /> <br />Every Christmas Season of my adult life I remember my excitement when the Company Store workers would stock the upstairs display area with "toys"...<br /> <br />As I remember they did this after Thanksgiving .........we would watch through the windows and dreammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....!<br /> <br />Then on Monday after school we would run to the store so we could go upstairs and look, smell, touch, hear, and metaphorically taste Christmas.....and dreammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....!<br /> <br />More than once Mother bought a YO-YO for me as soon as they were stocked so I would stop dreammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmming and requesting so much...( and probably stop aggravating her)<br /> <br />But you know.....somehow we knew it was OK to dreammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......and yet we were taught to be "age appropriate" realistic...<br /> <br />What great memories and I would not trade them for all the World's Toys or a new set of World Book Encyclopedias!!<br /> <br />Love to all,<br /> <br />rodAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
