Friday 5

Well, it was a while ago now that I participated for the first time in Friday 5.  I have decided to try another round. 

So, here it goes:

1.  Most neighborhoods have at least one place that’s (according to lore) haunted. What the haunted place in your neighborhood (or in the neighborhood where you grew up), and what’s the story?

I don’t know the story for sure, but we’ve been told that the place we live in is haunted.

2.  Most neighborhoods have at least one place where some kid (according to legend) did something daring, dangerous, and most likely stupid. What’s the place in your neighborhood (or in the neighborhood where you grew up), and what’s the story?

I dunno.  Maybe one of my local readers can fill me in.

3.  Most neighborhoods have some lame building (like a bank or a gas station) where there used to be something much, much cooler. What’s the place in your neighborhood (or in the neighborhood where you grew up), and what’s the story?

Man, I need to find out more about my little town.  We’ve only been here 3 years.  I don’t know much of the local lore.

4.  In most neighborhoods of our youths, there are a few places that almost always cause us to say, “That’s the place where I _________.” What’s one such place in the neighborhood where you grew up, and what’s the story?

I grew up in the Yukon Territory.  My mom had a distant relative that also lived in the area.  I liked going out to their home because it was in the wild.  I took my boyfriend at the time with me there once and we hiked through the woods and carved our initials in a couple of the trees.

5.  Where in the neighborhood where you grew up would you most likely run into someone today who knew you when you were a kid? 

Hmm, if I went back to where I grew up, I would find many that knew me when I was a kid without trying very hard at all.  I grew up in a very small neighborhood / community.  Some places would be the church, school, library, grocery store and convenience store.
