they often share great pictures they have taken and then artistically made them into a B&W picture.
This one isn't made into B&W.
It was taken in B&W. This is a picture of my very first swing set, Vernon Hills Illinois let's just say 3 days ago!
Do you remember your first swing set?

Swing set? Are you kidding? My mother wanted me wrapped in bubble wrap....and it hadn’t even been invented when I was a kid! I’m surprised she let me have a tricycle!!!

I didn’t either. That explains why we’re grumpy old codgers.

I remember one of our swing sets my stepdad was setting it up and my sisters dared me to run under it I did and it fell on me and I had to go to the hospital and get stitches in my head I learned the hard way to ever do something stupid again but I was young maybe 5 or 6 I believe. I saw all the blood and was scared I thought I was going to die.

@DianneN my dad loved cement. We used it a lot. Sometimes I wonder if his goal was to cement the whole world.

neither was this one! I actually managed to get it to fall over twice, then we moved away from Chicago. I thought that was why we moved!

I do remember mine. It was set up when I was about 3 and my mom took many home videos on it. Her favorite is me sitting on my metal slide singing about the trees around us.

Woah that's very cool, my swings were usually on branches of trees, my grandpa used some ropes, sometimes wood and the tree, it was fun...we used a pillow sometimes to not hurt my booty
