I haven’t seen this movie since I was a kid. Back in ‘89 I believe. According to calender years that time has been so long ago. Yet it feels like it was just yesterday. So many good memories. That house didn’t have any significance to me at that time. However, smiles and laughter are shared when my sisters and I discuss the memories that we all had living there. The house itself wasn’t much. It was a small house that sat on a narrow street. Big shady tree in the front yard and a huge backyard that supplied us with the space to let our imaginations run wild. Since moving to Sacramento I’ve revisited that house about three times. Each time it appears to be smaller and smaller. I guess everything does look enormous when you’re a kid.
It’s funny how forgotten movies, tv shows, songs, or scents can reignite a memory that hasn’t been reflected on since the moment of experience. Just the other day I caught a scent of perfume that reminded me of my first grade teacher. Random right?
