I, too, spent my summers roaming through fields and streams, creating
"houses" under the sweeping branches of trees or within large shrubs, lying
on my back and watching the clouds or on my stomach watching ants. I have
to say I feel sorry for today's kids. Video games, computers, TV, and the
mall are not life. No wonder they are so easily bored.
