I couldn't imagine what it must have been like to have had so much freedom around here. Nowadays I find myself telling my own kids very similar stories about my "good old days" on the beaches and the surrounding countryside. I remind them that these days are their "good old days" of which they will someday be telling their kids about, so they should take notes and enjoy them. Life goes on -- deal with it.
