Best thing about my backyard... the trampoline

While there are many things to love about my home, the thing I like most is the backyard. I love the grass, the garden, the many many trees my father has planted over the years (it increases property value). We have a lot of room to play games and have water gun fights. I like to lay in the grass with both dogs and look up at the sky, pondering the many meanings of life. But by far the BEST part of my backyard is the trampoline. The trampoline was given to us by a man who lives down the road and is a friend of my father. He is old and his children grew up and didn't use it anymore. We got it when I was about 10. It is fabulous. You would think that at the age of 24 I wouldn't still love the tramp as much as I do, but who doesn't love jumping through the air? I am still the person in our family who uses it the most. The person who uses it the most after me? My dad.
