A very well-written remembrance of childhood story. When we look back we cannot always believe how much the world around us changed sometimes without noticing.

Comment from Liz O'Neill
I sense a bit of melancholy. I may be projecting. I always feel a little sad when I drive by an area that was fun to play in and now it is so changed. I had a similar experience of the dirt being paved. It was a path but still it was important to me. I wrote about it in my book Be Wee With Bea. It was called Bea's Golden Path. My real path was at grad school. The 2nd summer I went there, it was paved. I was sad & annoyed. Your account was well written.

Thanks for your review. You're right about the melancholy feeling, seeing it paved really felt like it wasn't the same. Expected, after so long but sad all the same.

This does what the contest asks for. You do a good job of bringing your memory to life and showing us why this place and that was memorable, and how even though things have changed that memory lives on inside you.
A very strong entry.
