The author embellishes peasant times of childhood, especially the times spent helping to prepare those Blueberry or Peach deserts. Teenage friendships that grew during summer vacations and the happy fun times spent at the local amusement Park are fondly remembered. Shared experiences with close friends and members of the Lucky 7 Boat Club were full of fun, laughter, and of course hard work as each new boating season began. The past will always remain as Cherished Memories
