Gliding Around

"They had this vinyl like, they didn't have tile back then, but it was a roll-up vinyl sheeting they put on the floor. And my uncle who built me some furniture and I had playsets and all kinds of stuff. Yeah, and you played down there year-round 'cause it was under the house. So, anyway, Tommy would come up and play. One day we decided we needed to go skating. So we went up stairs and got a stick of butter out of the refrigerator and came down and got news papers. And we cleared the furniture. We skated, we had the best time, and just gliding around. We were greasy as a greased pig. And all I can remember is sitting in front of mama's refrigerator. His mama had come up and they were giving us a scolding."
