I grew up in the 60's about an hour North of Chicago. We use to summer in Wisconsin, Green Lake to be specific. We stayed on the lake in a rented cabin. Family friends lived up there and had a boat, we use to picnic and swim all day long. My brothers and sister use to try to water-ski but I was to little. I did almost drown once and was pulled up by one of my brothers; it was more like falling in the water and sinking with them jumping in after me. Otherwise we had some great summers up there. Other summers were often spent going to the National and state parks to picnic. My parents loved to take us all on a picnic.

We had business parties at our house because my Dad was a high school principal. Those were the only parties I remember. I was so little I use to sneak into the room and hide under the tables or behind the furniture. I am sure it drove my mother crazy but eh, I was a kid.

That's just a few things.
