Growing up back then to now
Growing up, we played jump rope, sports, hopscotch, ran, rode bikes, and used our imagination. Something as simple as a box could be a car, a spaceship, a house, anything you wanted it to be. I didn't know a kid who didn't spend most of their time outside. As long as you were home before the street lights came on. I may be biased to say my generation is probably the last generation that were real kids. I can say, with an honest heart, that I'm glad and relieved that I grew up in the decade I did.

Who's in the Woods?
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The couple who had been walking in the cold dark night for what seemed like hours came across the cabin by chance. Or was it? The girl, Lacey, saw the flicker of the candle flame in the distance and suggested to her boyfriend Jason, “Hey I think I see a light, a cottage, let’s go see if someone is home”. “Maybe they can help us”. As they walk closer, they see it’s a cabin that has not been easy to find because it was located deep in the woods. The wood was aged and flimsy. The windows were covered with a film of dust and difficult to see through. Dry dead leaves overlaid the ground like a blanket as well as the edges of the ominous cabin. They walk up the creaking steps approaching the door. Jason knocks at the door two times, knock knock, but no answer. “Anyone home?” Still no answer, just the sound of the owls in the trees hooing at every other word. They hear a snap of a twig within the trees but it’s too dark to see. They look around and wait for someone to come out of the trees, but they don’t see anyone. They look at each other and Jason makes another attempt on knocking at the door. “Hi um… me and my girlfriend were out on the road when our car broke down.” “Do you think we can use your phone to call a tow?” he says aloud. No response, he raises his arm again to knock but before his hand hits the wooden door, it opens by itself. Jason pushes the door open gradually, Lacey holds on to Jason’s hand following behind him as they allow themselves inside the cabin.
