Playing in East City, Peterborough 1970s style

Winter

Eating warmed honeybuns at East City Coffee Shop

Getting the wind knocked out of me tobogganing on Armour’s Hill

Spring

Taking in a late-night baseball game at East City Bowl

Walking the trail between Roger’s Cove and Beavermead Park

Summer

Licking banana popsicles from Becker’s Milk

Jumping into the Lion’s Club swimming pool

Fall

Pumping face-to-face on the giant swing set in James Stevenson Park

Crossing over the Hunter Street bridge to buy fries at Sneaky Pete’s

Year Round

Attending the 9 a.m. Mass

so we’d have more time to play.
