When I was a little kid, when my summers were still free, we would visit family in Ohio. It was pretty fun, hanging out with relatives and doing kid stuff. Riding bikes, eating ice cream, and lighting off fire works. It was fun. We would go on long, long, walks with David in a wagon. We would go to the library and visit an old Quaker Oats Factory with a penny candy store. Though, I don't think candy was a penny back then it was more like a nickle or a dime. Hmmm, what things you remember late at night. Anyway, when we were a bit older we would bike to a public estate, Stan Hewit Hall.
We would sneak into the back and run around the gardens that were always so beautiful. It was so free. It was my own little kingdom. It was the first time I saw Shakespeare on stage. I had no idea what they were saying but it was fantastic to watch.
There is a walled English Garden with benches on either side of a large reflecting pool in the center. The water, black, reflecting the bottom of the pool. Reflecting your image when you peek over the side. At the end of the pool is a statue, a fountain. Of a smooth dark skinned woman standing naked, hands outstretched, palms cupped. Water pools in her hands and trickles down over the two children at her feet. The children laugh and reach their hands up to the water and to their mother. I've never seen anything more beautiful and lovely.
