I remember this day. I was 3.5 years old. My dad took us to Salt Fork Lake to swim and bought us ice cream. What a treat that was. My dad liked to take us swimming. Its one of my clearest, early memories of him.
What copper colored hair I had as a child. No wonder I love to make red headed dollies. :)
We used to go to the creeks to swim. A favorite time was after hoeing cane in the hot sun. We took inner tubes to float on. My sister was a good swimmer, but I was always a little afraid to go into water deeper than where I could touch the bottom with my feet. It's fun to see the pictures; we didn't have a camera until my sister was a senior in high school, so there aren't many pictures from my childhood.
