When I was a boy, I went to all my neighbors and stole their garden hoses. I took them to the field behind my house. I climbed to the top of the giant tree in the center of the field and tied off the garden hoses to the highest branches I could climb. I would repel down the garden hoses and pretend I was part of some select group of soldiers. I had a bow that I acquired. I would fashion arrows out of the reeds I found in the field. I would climb to the tallest branch with my bow and arrows and perch there watching over my field.
