Tell me what you did at recess when you were my age

In grade school some of the things I enjoyed doing at recess include hopscotch, 4-square, the high bars (where we would twirl and do cherry-drops), kick ball, football, jumprope, teeter-totter, and tetherball.

I think football and tetherball were probably my favorites -- but I just loved recess.

In 5th grade we had a spell of thick, heavy fog for a few days. I remember playing football in the fog ~ it was so much fun!!

When I started playing tetherball, I would play until my hands and arms hurt from hitting the ball. I was very comptetitive and hated to lose ~ sometimes it would cause fights between me and my best friend, Aimee Howlett. But we would always find a way to be friends again.
