Does this ever happen to you? You see, smell, or hear something that reminds you of something? Or, it sends you reeling back to a time in your past that you absolutely love so much that you’re left yearning to be back in that moment? It’s happened to me lately-a lot.
Awning lights come on. Flash light beams dance along the winding roads. Laughter from the next site carries over. Inevitably, sparklers find there way to eager hands, sometimes even fireworks for the rule-breakers.

Gina I totally know what you mean. For me its the sounds of mowing and the smells of grass clippings. In a flash I am back at my desk in the tiny school in the tropical rain forest and at any moment I anticipate the flock of parrots that would fly through the gully squawking joyfully in the hot morning. Lige was so good back then. We never feared our fellow man and for us in the jungle it was alligators or anacondas or bushmasters (very poisonous snakes)…o, and the taratulas! But wonderful times

Wow I guess I am defective, because I read this and tried to think of good happy memories, and I thought about summer camp and mosquito bites. Camping, never did that as a kid I have as an adult and wish I hadn't. The things I think about are Sushi and Sake! Can we go have some RIGHT NOW!! MMMMMM!
