Hippiechild, your childhood looks like it was amazing. I wish I was given that kind of exposure to nature. Even building shelters, awesome.

My favorite toys were stuffed animals. I had tons. Also gameboy, and the computer. Yep, technology sucked the life out of me starting from a young age.

My sister and I would always play with the water bugs in the pond, ha. And we used to paint rocks. (coolkidz)
 
When I was a kid, ice cream men sold these small twisty things filled with gunpowder or something, and they would pop when you threw them against something (sometimes people)... does anyone know what I'm talking about? No joke.
