Joe's Spring Mount Hotel

I grew up in Roslyn pa " (The Corner).. during a time when everyone treated each other like family (we never got away with ANYTHING!!!). We went outside to play, got dirty and we didn't eat fast food. We ate bologna sandwiches, raw hot dogs and cooked home-grown food. We ate penny candy, yes I said, "penny", and fake candy cigarettes. We played 1,2,3 Red Light Green Light, Hide & Seek, Truth or Dare, Red Rover, Tag, Dodge ball, Baseball, kick ball, kick the can, rode bikes an...d raced against each other. We cried if we couldn't go outside and play. There was no bottled water, we drank from the faucet and the hose pipe (don't forget to let that water run for a minute because it was hot when you just first turned it on!). We watched cartoons on Saturday morning (everyone looked forward to Saturday morning cartoons!!!, our parents loved it cause they were able to sleep in knowing we were occupied), we only had 3 channels on TV(which you had to get up to change) we played in the woods, built forts, and rode our bikes for hours without a cell phone. If you wanted to talk to your friends you had to go to their houses and find them. We weren’t AFRAID OF ANYTHING. If someone had a fight, that’s what it was...a fight. Kids didn't have guns when I grew up. When the street light came on it was our curfew. School was mandatory and we watched our mouths around our elders because ALL of your neighbors were your parents so we knew if we didn't we were in big trouble when we got home. I really miss those days. We were taught to be respectful and we didn't give our parents a hard time. We had a respectful fear of our parents, the law and God! We were taught to work hard for what we wanted. Life is short...Be humble and kind and respectful. Re-post if you're proud that you came from a close knit community and will never forget where you came from! Copy & Paste with an edit of where you grew up... These were the good ole days. & we turned out just fine. See more
