reading this triggered memories that we used to do that too, alao our village used to flood a lot, I rember acquiring a pics of thin ply and skim boarding the flooded roads before I knew what skim boarding was. the basic game of who can go the furthest
edit. also early 2000's when I was 8 ~12!!!
...now I feel old.
It's not my earliest memory, but when I think of playing. I think of the time in the early 2000's when I was around 8-12 years old.
A friend of mine and I used to go to the woods near our houses and build dams in the streams.
We called it "environmental work" but it was really just sealing off the stream to create a reservoir and the letting it loose again just before the water rose above the dam.
