How many doctors Did it take? 1,2,3,4 … Or you could catch the sound of hops and scrape of shoe soles as they danced along a hopscotch grid chalked on a sidewalk or drawn in the dirt of a country path. Another, now extinct, sound was the thrumming of a propeller driven airliner as it crossed the summer sky on a flight plan to a destination only guessed at in our imaginations. As the day relaxed into evening, mourning doves and red winged blackbirds signaled the setting sun. As the light grew dimmer on a BA / C summer day, somewhere in the distance an owl hoots its lonesome question,“ Who? Who? Who?” All of these sounds are remnants of memories of summers past, when indoors and outdoors weren’ t as separated. It was a time when folks spent as much time outdoors as they did inside. It was a time when sitting on the porch in the cool of an evening was a natural part of winding down the day. But even now, in our After A / C era, every once in a while, driving down a country road in Brown County, if you turn you’ re A / C off and roll your windows down, you just might hear the crack of a bat on a well-worn baseball as you pass a new mown field of hay. • Looking for a good place to eat?
