Fortunately for me, I only have the good memories.  If you can call the 
vague blurs memories.  Although I do remember the kid who lived across 
the street had a bunch of Star Wars action figures.  As far as the 
weather goes, I just remember it always being nice.  Or raining and then 
once the rain stopped it was immediately nice again.
