90's too. Our "neighborhood" (three apartment complexes and a housing development) was much, much larger than a square mile and I was all over that place as a kid.

As a 12 year old, I would pick up my two sisters after school (who are 7 & 10 years younger) go to the park for a bit, then walk home.
