Riverside Park, Baltimore

IN THE 1970'S THIS WAS OUR FANSTASY LAND THE PAVAILLION WAS OUR CASTLE AND THE CANNONS THERE ON THE HILL WERE OUR HORSES, FUNNY WHAT A CHILD'S MIND CAN DREAM UP. I USED TO SLEIGH RIDE THERE IN THE WINTER AND PLAY BASEBALL IN THE SUMMER. I WAS EXCITED WHEN THEY WOULD HAVE A DANCE AT THE REC CENTER. HAD A CRUSH ON A BOY WHO SKATBOARDED IN THE SKATEBOARD BOWL THAT WAS INSTALLED. ALL THE KIDS IN THE 1700 BLOCK OF COVINGTON STREET IN THE SUMMER WOULD BE ABLE TO STAY OUT LATE AND PLAY CATCHERS, SPUD AND RED ROVER, I THINK THOSE DAY ARE GONE....WELL IT'S NICE TO REMEMBER A MORE INNOCENT TIME. THANK YOU, TRACIE
