We played all the usual mentioned. Hide and seek was best at night in the summertime using flashlights. Someone would always find a really good hideout, then after we couldn't find them we'd have to change the rules. "Okay that spot is off limits". haha In the pool, we'd play Marco Polo, chicken fights, see who could hold their breath the longest, stuff like that. We used to play/explore in different woods or at a local creek. We'd always try to make it further than we had in the past into unchartered territory. As we got older the games took on more of a risk factor. You know things like ring and run, stuff like that. In the winter, my favorite thing was bumper hitching. I know totally dangerous, but man I could tell you some stories about that. The worst part was when you hit a pothole! One time I hit a pothole took a dive, as I looked up to watch the car driving away, my brand new glove was still stuck to the bumper! I looked at every bumper for weeks looking for that glove.
