Missing Brooklyn from Massachusetts

Coney IslandHi, I am a Brooklyn girl but have resided in Massachusetts for over 20 years now. Even after all of this time, I consider Brooklyn to be my home town. I love going back from time to time and seeing the old neighborhood. My fondest memories are of taking the train to Coney Island with my friends and sitting on the beach with a hot dog. Back then a 10 year old could do something like that without any fear. I also remember playing stick ball and opening up the Johnny Pump on a hot summer day….I love Brooklyn. I carry these memories with me and love passing them on to my children.
