Somebody in Duluth is doin’ it right

Have you seen this thing circling the internets? How to give your kid a 1970s summer.

From their suggestions:

3. Make them play outside. Like all day. All. Damn. Day.

Well someone out on the upper reaches of the Sucker River is letting their kids do just that.  I was out for a bike ride on Friday and came across these two bikes and heard a great deal of 10-yr old (guessing) laughing coming from the river.

Well done Duluth, well done.

(Although it is funny to note: bikes were locked to the bridge. You know, since some jerk might come along and steal them).

I know the locations of three kids' forts out in the woods that have been there for the last five years or so. One of them must be "owned" by kids who are now teenagers, however, since it's where they keep their orange juice bottle bongs. Which is, I guess, another way to have a 1970s summer.

I grew up in the 80s & 90s, and that list of Top Ten is spot on. Every single thing on it!!  I've got the scars to prove we played out side ALL DAMN DAY.

Go out and play and be home by 5:30 for dinner. Worked for me.
