Earliest/best memories

probably my best memories are just walking around the kitchen and my grandma sitting in a chair and just grabbing me and giving me a huge hug. it's something that i think of often and miss dearly.

i really don't know what my earliest memory is. things that i can think of right now weren't so early. this won had to be really early b/c i wasn't in full day school yet.
i remember going to bowling league with my grandma at the old bowling alley on broadway which was ditka's and is now OTB. we would go there, go to KMart for grilled cheese sandwiches and then go to the horse farm on the way home and i'd get to ride a pony. i would insist that gram could drop the lead b/c i had read how to ride a horse, but she wouldn't let me ride it by myself.

one time at bowling the electricity went out just when i was going to the vending machine to get a nestle crunch bar. i got really scared b/c i thought it was the gremlins coming to get us. we had to wait awhile for my gram to get her ball back and i was really scared the entire time.
