1991
I was still at olsh after Christmas and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 the arcade game came out for the Nintendo Entertainment System. I don't know if we had the day off or if this was part of a vacation day but I had saved my money and I walked to Kmart up the street and Uno is a blizzard it was terrible out and I bought this game and it came with a coupon for a free personal pizza from Pizza Hut and I was so excited.
This summer we went camping at the Dar State Forest we had our family picnics at camping in New York and Vermont.
This summer my dad uncle Dave my cousin Jeremy and I went canoeing in Sturbridge my dad and uncle Dave canoeed together my cousin Jeremy and I canoe in our own and there are these water snakes that were chasing us and I remember being all freaked out I don't remember catching any fish. This was at long pond and East Brimfield Lake there is a little tunnel you could go under route 20 and I've still gone fishing there as an adult and have a caught anything.
I think it was this summer that cousins up in New York in Altona took me into their back property and showed us where the glaciers had scraped soil from the land and there was a hole in the ground that was full of water and no one claimed to know how deep it was it might have had a bottom but they might have lied to me but I was always fascinated and I always wanted to go back to see if I could reach the bottom of that hole with a camera or some kind of rope with something on it so I could visually see
For some reason I wrote a note about GI Joe here, I probably should have been growing up but I'm going to turn 47 this year and I still love gi Joe as a Transformers and toys
Used to walk to school to avoid fights, had that kid pushed my head under the pool so I punched him in the head and fractured or broke something to my right hand, one of chess tournament one free cheap chest set, through that Super Light Rock in the air like an idiot and pretend it was a meteor, my classmates thought it actually fell from the sky i'm lucky nobody got bopped upside the head with it, but it was super light looking back I looked like slag but it was way lighter than any slag I've held but it was about the size of a baseball it was outside in the field during recess or gym.
I also let somebody punch me in the chest and knock the wind out of me we were all doing it the kids were weird in school. It didn't really hurt but it did teach me what it was like to lose my breath. A lot of fun there that's where I built my first CO2 car.
