Games & Memories of the Old Days...

We belong to this Oklahoma History List Server. They have been talking about their memories growing up in a time without television, computers -- about the different games that they played -- memories of living in the country. Do you remember making and walking on homemade stilts -- building tree houses -- having rotten egg fights -- painting your faces with polk berries and playing cowboy and Indians -- playing kick the can, red rover, drop the hankerchief, etc... -- saving all your gum wrappers and folding them into a long chain, jewelry -- making a phone out of two tin-cans and string (and it really working). How about exploring the countryside on stick horses (and real horses) and imagining all sorts of things. Have I left anything out? We would love to hear some of your memories of growing up in the country, city.

Well! It is that time again to bring this week's newsletter to another end and see what memories can be jogged. Before we go... What about those OSU Cowpokes (Oklahoma Basketball) traveling to East Rutherford, N.J. this weekend after advancing to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. Will they make it all the way to San Antonio, TX? GO - OSU Cowpokes! See Y'all next weekend, the first weekend in April. You may also see us next weekend at Parelli's Love - Language - Leadership, 2-Day Horsemanship Seminar, April 3-4, 2004, at the Oklahoma State Fair Grounds, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
