2024 LAPC #298: To Be Young Again

We can’t go back to being young again, but that doesn’t stop us from feeling young once again. When we reminisce we remember how we felt when we were young, the excitement of getting on a bus for a week of adventure with friends.

We remember the fun times of venturing into Baja California ( or a place we’d never been to before), of sharing our time and helping others. We remember the dreams and ideas we had, the places we wanted to see, the things we wanted to do.

We remember sharing our love,passion, enthusiasm, and experiences with children and families. We remember how it was when we were young and smile at all our happy memories.

Done with reminiscing for a while; we share our memories, our stories, our experiences with the young of today … our grandchildren. Just maybe they will find joy and excitement in doing some of the same things we enjoyed doing when we were young.

I am an avid reader. I read mostly Amish fiction but also read other novels. I enjoy romance, mystery, and Christian devotionals. I enjoy hiking in the outdoors, especially in Greenways and State or National Parks. I love my grandson. He is my favorite subject, so I'll post about him and his antics.

  1. Yes, memories. Remembering some of the same at picnics etc. And while we share with our grands, don’s you also remember how fun it was just to go to grammas house? I do. Very nice read, and photos.

  2. Thank you Ludwig! Memories from my dad’s slides remind me of times past, of church outings, of family vacations, of times I hardly recall anymore. I am truly thankful for being given his slides.

  3. Ah, youth. Indeed, we all like to look back at bright days long gone by. And we like sharing those memories and enjoy when others share. You have managed to use that theme and charmingly stretch it over several challenges. And those bring joy to a much wider audience. Bravo.

  4. LOL for monster trucks – I have 4 brothers and remember theirs as well as my nephews’. One of our local gas stations also had a “deal” if you bought enough gas you got a fire truck or something. That was a VERY long time ago! Thanks for the fond memory😊
