>>2520224we'd go buy snacks from a little shop nearby, and have a little picnic in the woods, sit on the rocks and play Yu-Gi-Oh on an old table. we would build forts too, usually out of pine needles, sticks, and random trash we found. whenever someone moved out or remodeled their kitchen, they'd throw out the old cupboards and such, so we would take them to build stuff. it was like a gold mine to us.
I used to play a lot of Warcraft then. it wasn't so hard to imagine that the woods were filled with ruins inhabited by elves or ogres even though I knew it wasn't true. eventually I realized that the "forest" wasn't even half a mile across, but man when we were little, it seemed HUGE to us.
