It was fun, but it was also scary, knowing that you could easily just fall off at any moment, but they gave us life savers.... : )JosephAlsarrafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06545335167106076406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7642588922402729816.post-5186722959169031262014-01-22T22:02:52.161-08:002014-01-22T22:02:52.161-08:00Another wonderful reminisce!

We live on a rather tiny island connected to the mainland by a 2 mile causeway which floods on occasion with a high storm tide and is closed. Your mum would be be quite miserable here. I love it though and shouldn't ever want to live inland.aspiritofsimplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870339828098281415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7642588922402729816.post-24157344087709297192014-01-21T16:55:26.731-08:002014-01-21T16:55:26.731-08:00really well written story...I mean the story was g...really well written story...I mean the story was great but the telling was really well done!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13864898827831713032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7642588922402729816.post-84492855445586457652014-01-21T10:31:23.535-08:002014-01-21T10:31:23.535-08:00Wonderful tale of childhood adventures Old Egg!

Never ever saw him about the town in winter, when the river ferrying stopped.Altonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841390371168941022noreply@blogger.com
