How as teens we’d walk and talk and love. Our rebellion of our parents complete. We loved.

  31. As I read this I was instantly transported back to my childhood summers down the Jersey shore, when we would wade into muddy/sandy puddles as deep as our waists and know it was worth our mothers yelling at us. Cheers! Nice job.
