Did you ever play in the sprinkler or hose?

Did I grow up as a typical buy you might ask and then you would get the answer of Yes and know instantly that of course I played in the sprinkler and the hose. We often had water fights break out during a down time after we had finished hauling the hay. The water fight helped to wash off the sweat and the hay leaves and it felt so good. Then there were always the water fights that just naturally broke out at reunions and other family gatherings. I have since learned though that to not get wet you have to not let your expensive camera get off of your body. At that time I didn’t know that and got soaked plenty of times. Mostly however I played in the irrigation water and really enjoyed that even though in today’s teachings it would have made deathly ill or sick from the bounty of germs in the water. I swallowed a lot of canal water and youth today would be served well by doing the same so their immune systems could get a chance to learn to defend themselves from diseases.
