We had a long front walk leading up to steps to our front door and used to play Giant Step and Red Light. Also used to play Chinese jumprope - we used the picket fence as a stand in when there were only 2 of us.

We had a couple of big rocks in the back yard we used to play on - one was mostly horizontal so we could pour water on it and make rivers, lakes, etc. Used to make mudpies too.

Of course chasing the mosquito fog truck in the summer - who know what was in that stuff, oh well, I'm still alive!!

In the rear of the schoolyard at the elementary school was a wooded hill that went up about 50 feet at a very steep angle - the fence was at the top. We girls used to play in there every recess. I imagine nowadays the fence is at the bottom, so Special Snowflake won't hurt herself.
