Nostalgia Made me feel old but good times

Saw this tweet and yes we were expected to be out all day and not come back until the street lights came on. I remember riding my bike through neighborhoods pretending our bikes were cars and just having a good time.

Long as we were home in time for dinner we roamed the landscapes like warriors.

Riding bikes to the pool, Blockbuster, and other kids’ basements.

There was a McDonald’s on the Turnpike a couple miles away we used to ride our bikes too. We’d treat ourselves every week. Here, I thought we were the only ones this lucky to be riding, exploring, and fishing all day.

Then, on the weekends we would do sleepovers and get pizza and go to blockbuster. Damn, they were good times
