Up, Up


 How do you like to go up in a swing, 
             Up in the air so blue? 
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing 
             Ever a child can do! 
Up in the air and over the wall, 
             Till I can see so wide, 
River and trees and cattle and all 
             Over the countryside—
Till I look down on the garden green, 
              Down on the roof so brown—
Up in the air I go flying again, 
              Up in the air and down!
Robert Louis Stevenson

Ada is coming to see me Thursday.  I wish I had a swing.  We have had several that Larry attached to high tree limbs.   I really miss all the things Pop could do.

When our kids were young, we bought a swing set that had a slide too. All the kids in the neighborhood came and used it.

A swing on a high limb will soar so high. It is the ultimate swing.
