writing on Pico

So, I've been working on writing my book. It just occurred to me, as I was lost in the essence of reliving my past, that I need to stay focused on what made my early years spent on Pico Mountain different?

Some thoughts:
  • I grew up merely steps away from skiing--and good skiing!
  • I was allowed to roam for miles and my parents didn't worry--this was before cell phones.
  • I knew every rock, nook and cranny, bend in the road, and hill within at least a mile radius of my house.
  • We had to keep the pantry stocked at all times as the closest grocery store was 10 miles away, one way
  • Often, the weather determined if we went out or not.

Hmmm, maybe this book will work.
