Music Monday – “Down our long dusty driveway/I set my mind to go/I was eighteen and wild and free and wondering

Any time I spend time at our farm with my dad and Pace as I did this past weekend…

…I think of this song.

One reason the lyrics resonate is because I literally was that nervous boy getting onto the school bus for the first time.  (Of course I managed to come home with a broken foot the very first day I took the bus to school but that’s another story.  I will however always resent the teacher who told me to “walk it off” after a playground accident!)

The video always gets me too – would make a good Saccharine Sunday post for sure!
