When our mother was ready to go our signal to get out of the woods was the honking of the car horn. It was a marvelous communications system long before cell phones or Walkie-Talkies. Oh, those were the days when playing in the woods was the most delightful, adventuresome and exciting times for kids growing up in my generation. Playing in the woods may be a forgotten treasure for today's children. I was reminded of that when an older gentleman told his peers of his days riding his "tree horse" in the woods. The man lived near Union Mills near the Rutherford/ McDowell county lines and a tree had leaned over and became the shape of a tree. I could just see this gentleman as a little boy. With his cowboy hat, stirrups, chaps and his cap-buster around his waist, jumping on his horse for a ride into the Wild, Wild West and perhaps fi ghting the enemy along the way and later bringing home dinner after successful hunts. The tree horse was his favorite place. When he took his grandchildren there years later, expecting them to be as excited as he, disappointment came over him when they suggested going back to the house. The tree horse didn't mean so much to them He sent them back to the house and he climbed on the old tree horse for a ride. He penned an original song, "The Tree Horse" after that day and shared it with his friends. He said in the song, the kids had rather play video games than ride on his horse. In the woods behind the house where I spent my years after age 9, we discovered the most awesome entertainment park in the world. When our cousins would come from near and far, we'd ask our parents if we could 'go to the woods." You see, down in the woods was a creek from where we uncovered tadpoles swimming under rocks, caught knotting-heads with a cane pole and worm; built a dam in the creek for swimming; and walked "bravely" up the creek to discover other adventures — on someone's property — like snakes swimming along the banks of the creek "and snake-feeders" fl ying overhead, they sent us splashing sceaming down the creek with our voices resounding through the woods. We dug clay from the sides of creek banks and created the most amazing dishes for our playhouse in the woods. Our largest serving bowls, though, came from the mud-turtle shells, Daddy contributed. In the woods was a magic slide — an embankment — that took us to the bottom of the hill in record speeds. There was a tree vine for swinging and wild muscadines hanging from trees for eating. We even pretended we went to work in the woods, inventing this job or that job. On one occasion after we'd spent an hour or more trimming bark off the trees with dull knives we confi scated from the kitchen drawers. Daddy discovered the trees and that job ended abruptly. He nearly skinned a little bark off our trees, but we promised never to de-bark another tree. We secretly chewed rabbit tobacco, trying to spit as far as possible, and found the most gorgeous wild berries and wild fl owers too. "That's poison," I can still hear my older sister screaming, to which we'd sling the berries back and on the ground, coughing and spitting out any remnants of the weed juice in our mouths. Never ever got sick. When we visited our cousins on the outskirts of Charlotte, they had woods too, and a pond where we'd ice skate in the winter just like the people we saw in the movies. For hours we'd stay in the woods, until the honking of horn. Many of today's children couldn't possibly play in the woods where there are no cell signals for phones, internet or video games. Technology is awesome and delightful, fun and educational, but for those of us who had fun going to the woods, you can't beat those days with a 10-foot cane pole. Like the tree horse that is gone, the woods behind my home are gone too, replaced by a four-lane highway... gone forever, but never forgotten.
