Childhood home memories - LOAD212 - Day9
Web version
I've been wanting to finish up this layout for quite a while - adding it to my childhood neighbourhood album. I plan to do a photo collage of the few photos we have of the house but I still need to round a few more up. I added a handwritten "memories" to the bottom after I scanned it.
Journaling reads: Yellowy-orange shag carpet and large plank hardwood floors | Riding down the banister | Sliding down the stairs in our snow pants | Killing bats with tennis rackets | Mom making a hole in the wall to open up a new room | Antenna ears to watch a few TV channels | Hitting our heads on the slanted ceilings in our bedrooms | Sharing one bathroom | Big wood stove in basement | Dirt floors in mom’s pottery studio | The linoleum in the kitchen | Pantry off the telephone area | Hiding in the big cupboards in mom and dad’s room for hide and seek | Having quiet time with all my books on mom and dad’s bed | The tiny closet and shelf area in our room | Sharing a room with Sarah | The long electric heater in my room | The little ledge in the hallway as you came up the stairs |Having dad make a dollhouse replicating the house and using the same materials | Fiddleheads | Sean climbing the tree | Metal playground | Sean sticking tongue to metal playground | Mom building an ice rink | Old playhouse made from a fish hut from the Cummings with a deck built on to it | Wooden compost box that stored the canoe on top | Chestnut tree and always trying to avoid the prickles | Small hill – great for tobogganing | Accessed the basement from the backyard into the woodstove and workbench area | Hole in the driveway that we weren’t supposed to play in | Easy access to laneway behind us |Stairs up to driveway from the backyard | Watching it being torn down |
