Reminiscing about summertime Several residents took the time to share their best summer memories with us—and we can almost feel the sunshine, hear the waves and smell the campfires! “We lived in a small town in Minnesota. The town had a swimming pool we could use for free. We kids would get home about 4 p.m. Waiting for us was homemade bread for a radish sandwich.” “I remember the good time we spent at a farm pond near Mayetta, Kan., that we leased with 15 other families. We had a sand swimming beach, a toilet, fishing docks, a pontoon boat and horseshoe pits. We would go camping on weekends with our kids, grandkids and a bunch of really good friends.” • Playing with my siblings in the pond

• Family camping/boating trips • Running away from June bugs! Squishing lightning bugs. I didn’t like bugs back then… • Going camping with my grandparents, sitting around campfires, fishing on the boat, lake swimming and looking at stars.
