Doing A 360 On A Chained Swing

In the 1950's when I was a kid my mom drove me to Glen Echo Park located in Columbus,Ohio.My mom sat in one of the swings and I was in the next one to her.

There were other kids playing in the park .so I decided to show off, by doing a 360 in a swing. I kept going faster and faster until I reached 100 degrees in the air, that's when the chain disconnected from one of the supporting hooks and I had fallen down to the hard ground crying.

While I was crying two pretty girls about my age raced up to me saying "Awww!"  and started to kiss my cheeks, one of them close to my mouth. The kisses made me feel a little better, but I was still in extreme pain.

My mom drove me back home and called our family doctor.In the 1950's doctors did make house calls.I had no broken bones, prescribed pain pills and ordered bed rest.

Now I beginning to think that doing a 360 in a chained swing unaided  is impossible and is very dangerous.

But I did kept on day dreaming about the two pretty girls who kissed me , wondering if they wanted a chance to kiss me ,or was it simply because  their motherly instincts  had taken over.

Even to this day I still don't know who they were, the park was crowded.(end)
