I remember putting lu...yep yep count me in on this. I remember putting lunch in a paper bag, tossing it in the basket of my bike, meeting my friends, and leaving for the entire day to go to the park or play in the woods. No one worried about us. They knew where we were and that we'd be okay. Probably. However, I do remember the summer that Ann Marie Burr vanished and there were posters everywhere. She lived in my neighborhood. So did Ted Bundy. They never did find her. Bundy refused to talk about her in his interview just before his execution. We're we as safe as everyone thought? Or were our parents just more naive? And the sun thing? Go figure! Both my husband and myself exposed ourselves to far too much sun early in our lives, beginning as children. He has had skin cancer for the last 20+ years, having it removed a couple of times a year. Me - I've never had any. Skin type? Type of exposure? Location? *shrug* But yeah .... it's a wonder we survived!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00412494352237001494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23541753.post-1142086181553964382006-03-11T15:09:00.000+01:002006-03-11T15:09:00.000+01:00And Miss WYa know, the sun thing is probably a rea...And Miss W<BR/>Ya know, the sun thing is probably a reaction to all the people baking on the beaches for days on end, with the terrible reflections from the sun.<BR/>I know the ozone layer is thinner, so they can just give their kids some good sun screen and send them out to play.<BR/>Did you know that asthma and allergies have hit the all time high because kids don't get enough fresh air? Isn't that a shame?

I came to think of those wonderful women in Knapely from the film Calendar Girls, and how they all go to the neatest hill and do Akido exercizes together.<BR/>THEN we'd go and get a big café Latte!<BR/>Wouldn't that be heaven?!!!!<BR/>(LL)LibertyBellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05608269013003978447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23541753.post-1142085371886177532006-03-11T14:56:00.000+01:002006-03-11T14:56:00.000+01:00That's right Wystful... what I need is all of you ...That's right Wystful... what I need is all of you living within a 2 mile radius of my house... then I could walk over and get you and we'd go get the next one until we have us all... and then find something to do!

It...I have to laugh at this in a way Libertybelle! It's what I've been saying for years! I see kids being "afraid" of some healthy dirt on their hands even! Dirt builds immunities. And lack of sunshine with these kids always indoors with their CDs, TV on, at computers or playstations...they're sick all the time! Kids need physical activities...and to get dirty once again.<BR/><BR/>But, what do we know? Doctors say no sun...stay clean.<BR/><BR/>I think about all the people who work outdoors for a living---farmers, street repair, lifeguards...they're in the sun without sunscreen for generations and no skin cancers!Wystful1https://www.blogger.com/profile/16496320533836392215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23541753.post-1142038751027055412006-03-11T01:59:00.000+01:002006-03-11T01:59:00.000+01:00Yep... it's all true... every bit of it!Yep... it's all true... every bit of it!Mellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16266127127286739779noreply@blogger.com
