A huge chunk of my childhood was spent playing in the dirt and mud. I lived in bumfuck nowhere Pennsylvania, so that's all I had to do when the neighbor kids were busy.

I was playing with dried out dog shit in some forsaken sandpits of Eastern Europe just after the Soviet’s collapse.

I wish I could romanticise it somehow but no matter my attempts it never sounds super cool.
