Gumballs

When I was growing up I would spend, what felt like, all my time at the Booker's house. Everyday, Jenny and I would watch "Todays Special" http://www.megsplace.com/TimeWarp/tspecial.html and eat cucumbers sliced up with salt. On really nice days we would go outside and climb what we liked to call "Jenny's Gumball Tree". We would play on it year round, but we especially liked the spring. You see, in spring we started to be able to actaully have "gumball" fights. Everytime I look at a "gumball" It takes me back to those good old summer days when I was in Kindergarten with Jen, and our Brothers would be running around us like crazies!
What, in nature, flings you back to childhood?
