Fainted from the heat.(I'm very fair can't take much heat)<BR/> and ruined a pair of tennies in the mud. Mother said enough she couldn't afford the shoes and the trip to the ER.

He used to play the blob when my daughter(10 yrs. younger than he) was little. He would sneak up on her with a blanket on and "blob" her. She would scream and have so much fun.<BR/>In my area high school kids still make pretty good money detasseling corn.<BR/>I too remember when a call came in and it was long distance the whole world seemed to stand still! I kind of miss those simple times!cinnamongirl93https://www.blogger.com/profile/01839550736649864985noreply@blogger.com
