Then it was on to the picnic area for hot dogs and kool-aide and a swim in Lake Huron. That was our summer and I will cherish those memories forever. Sadly, our children and grandchildren will never experience this because technology seems to rule the world now.

My parents taught us the meaning of a hard days work and EARNING your way thru life.  Not one person in my family has taken a penny from the govt to get them thru.  My mom was the oldest of 12 kids.  One of her younger brothers was seriously injured in a sledding accident in the late 1950's.  All the brothers and sisters who were married and with families chipped in for expenses and helped watch the younger ones so my grandparents could stay in Ann Arbor with their gravely injured son for 4 months. That's just the way it was done.  What is given away today in freebies is disgusting.  The libs way of keeping the poor - poor- gets them votes and does nothing to help these people help themselves.

Thank God we raised our kids the same way!  I am very proud of them and they are all conservative, especially since they are getting nice paychecks and don't like what is taken from them to redistribute to those who won't work.
