Your Favorite Childhood Memory

Lynn · 03-01-2010, 10:12 AM

I'm pretty lucky because I have lots of happy memories. Most of them involve doing things with my family. I remember many summer weekend trips from PA to Atlantic City, NJ. This was before casinos, when people still dressed up at night to walk the boards. We didn't have a lot of money, so we stayed at a cheap motel, off the main drag, but at night we'd dress up and walk the boards with everyone else, stopping for a frozen custard while my dad talked about coming to AC with his parents. We were all burnt to a crisp from too much sun, but it was fun, anyway.

My best childhood memory...

Waking up with the wind hitting the tent..

No one was up, the sun was just starting to pink the sky... The wind was so absolutly warm.. wild...

I walked across the sand to this outcropping of rocks and sat there... Watching the sky lighten and the world wake up...

It was just me, the birds, the wind, the ocean and the sun...

For me it's my favorite and most vivid childhood memory because I think that was the moment I became aware of myself as a separate person..
