Personal memory by Jason Tucker

My brothers and sister had a field near our home that had a small section of wooded area that we built a clubhouse in. The open area of the field had hosted many many games of kickball, baseball, football and other activities for the neighborhood kids to use. The field has been paved through, not the entire field, just enough for two lanes of traffic (there was a road nearby that drove around the field). The road now runs directly through the middle of the field. The road is now two useless patches of grass where many children (myself included) had many fond memories of playing with friends.
