Shortly before starting kindergarten, we moved to a neighborhood on Dean Road–a stretch of blacktop consisting of seven houses, depending on how you count. Five houses with young children; the sixth with no kids yet, but with a pond; and the seventh my Great-Aunt Mary’s home. Beyond suburbia and bordering on rural, the neighborhood became my slice of city-life heaven.
I made discoveries about time and space, and the neighbors began discovering me.

I really enjoy some of these “look back” stories…it’s a very unique blogging theme. Keep it up!

Thank you so much, NC.I really appreciate your comment.
My pleasure. I’d like to repost a story or two from time to time if you don’t mind. And, please call me “Ed.”
Enjoy your day and “make it count!”
Ed 🙂
Wow, thanks, Ed. I’m thrilled.
I didn’t go to kindergarten here. I was born in 1952 and started 1st grade at age 5. Where did you grow up?
Levi, I’m from upstate NY and was born in 1950.
Got it. It’s beautiful there. We’ve traveled there on occasions.
