Best Childhood Memory
I have a lot of good childhood memories and a lot of awful memories, but I can't say I have a best childhood memory.
When I was a little girl, my parents would pack us into the car and drive from Oklahoma City to Fort Smith, Arkansas, where my father was from. I used to think that was the longest road trip ever, but we always had a great time visiting my grandmother, aunts, uncles and cousins (one aunt had 7 sons). We would pile into the kitchen or den and eat, talk or just listen. We kids could often be found playing outdoors during the day or playing games or watching television indoors in the evening. Once we got to Fort Smith and started having fun, we'd forgotten all about how long it took to get there. Those were the times...

Family roads trips always seem like they took F.O.R.E.V.E.R. and usually involved with someone being on "your side". Great memory. Thanks for sharing. Are you still in the OKC area? I grew up in Norman and a little further south Lexington.
ReplyDeleteCristy, I currently live in Columbia, SC, but I visit Oklahoma at least once a year. My oldest son graduated from OU last May. It's always nice to communicate from someone from my home state. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteRoad trips were always one of my favorite memories from when I was a kid!
