Reminiscent of a place

This place I recall is a very special place were some of my most favorite childhood memories are. The green chained linked fence that stretched for miles would let me know that we were close to the house. You open up the door and you are greeted by a fresh aroma of cigarettes and a cloud of smoke from my grandparents smoking in the house. The house had steps inside the house which I thought was strange, but I guess it gives the house character. My grandparents had a huge yard, but that’s were all of the fun happened. My grandparents had a huge blow up pool that was about 3ft deep. Swimming in the summer over their as a child was like swimming in your private pool. You are greeted by nature and peace and quiet as you drift away without a care in the world. The most noticeable sound I remember is the chimer my grandmother had in the yard. The chimer would put you in a state of grace as you heard the wind blowing the chimer from side to side. I remember playing Walt Disney’s Magical Race course for Ps1. The heated races with my cousin were the highlight of my visits with my grandparents.
