Hey Doc

The first sign of the Summer holiday is over was standing room only on the bus on my way to work. Students, students... My quiet morning commute turned into packed sardines can. I will have to leave early to beat the crowd now. I can still remember how I spent my Summer holiday when I was young. Other then the stack of the home work we had to finish, summer holiday seems like never ending in the beginning but faster like hell when it gets closer to the end. Various summer camps were always fun to go. I used to spent weeks in our family maid's home in the country side. Their house sat in the middle of fish ponds and vegetable fields. We used to get up at the crack of dawn to start working in the fields. Food on the table was all pick fresh from the field or the chicken was just running around in the front yards a minute ago. A whole pig can feed everyone for weeks. Life was simple !! We kids had no toys, made up stuff as we go while playing in the stream. That cool, clean water was perfect for the hot summer days.
I have not gone back to visit since I left for US. I wonder what has became to the fields and streams. I won't even need to guess.
