List your favorite safety blanket

Mine happens to be lists currently. And so, without further adeu,

Things I miss from summers in a rural small town:

1) Lightning bugs. You just can't find a better, and grosser, ring for your finger.

2) Splinters. The marvel of pulling out a shard of wood from your body.

3) Bikerides. Down dusty roads with no traffic in sight.

4) Tag. Haven't had a good game of it in too long.

5) Wuffle ball. So much better than softball or baseball.
