When I was a kid , we lived in a residential neighborhood . My Dad's Mom and sister lived way out in the country in Mississippi . When we visited them it was like going to Disney World for me . We hunted Squirrels , fished in the pond down in the woods , picked fresh Peaches from the orchard down the road , you name it .
Their house had a certain smell to it . I still can't figure out what it was . Knotty Pine paneling , antique furnishings , fresh cooked vegetables that the neighbors had brought . So many different things that made that house unique . And it had a basement !! That earthy smell all it's own . Dark and mysterious place for a kid to poke around .
I can still smell all of those things and I miss being able to visit there .
