Hey, they should make jungle gyms for grown ups. <br /> The big metros certainly have changed over the decades, but my parents' town still has the bungalows with the shady backyards which are so darling.

I used to read a lot of Enid Blyton books while growing up and one of my favorite series were 'The Enchanted Woods' and 'The Magic of Faraway Tree'.
