THE CORNER WHERE I GREW UP – GARRY ARMSTRONG

WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge: CORNER

At my old family home on Long Island in New York, I found myself rediscovering the place I grew up … literally, the corner where the house stands.

This is my childhood corner of the world. This is my street, intersection, corner. The place I grew up. The house is closing and soon, it will be a memory. It has been more than 40 years since I lived here, but nostalgia lingers.

I participate in WordPress’ Weekly Photo Challenge 2017

      • I grew up in a neighbourhood like that and I can remember we would play hide and seek in the summer evenings until we were called in by our mothers. It was a lot of fun.

        • Leslie, sounds familiar. “Mr. Softee” drove by last week while I was at the old house. brought back a brace of memories. As I kid, I’d race out, change in my hand and get a ‘banana boat’ from Mr. Softee. These days ,the banana boat would do me in.
