A Blast From the Past

 Don't really have anything new to share with you today. Well because lets face it nothing really interesting happened. So instead of just skipping writing a blog today....I think I will share with you a little story from the past. This story is of no significance to who I am today nor did it really change anything its just funny and the first story that came to mind.

It was a warm summer day and we were down by the lake. The wind was blowing and it was as always a breath taking site. My best friends grandparents lived a mile down the road from my house growing up. Which meant I spent a lot of time down there. They had a hugh piece of land. With fields and countless lakes. We would spend hours running around playing. Pretending we were Pokemon trainers moonlighting as power rangers. Really  fun stuff let me tell you. But this day I guess we were feeling a little risky. Well as risky as 12 year olds can really get. So we decided to play on the dock. And what better way to play then to run back and for filling up cups of water and dumping them on the other side. I guess our 12 year old minds thought it would be fun. And it was until my best friend fell in the lake...He thrashed around for awhile with a terrified look on his face while I just looked at him not really for sure what I was supposed to do. I couldn't really swim either.

Eventually he realized he wasn't that far from the dock and grabbed the side and thats when I started laughing uncontrollably. I couldn't stop. I had never seen him look at me with such hate in his eyes until that moment. We started back up to the house to tell his grandma what happened and he was so scared he was going to get into trouble but I still couldn't stop laughing. We found her riding the golf cart in the front yard and when she saw him soaking wet I could only imagine what was going through his head at this moment. Convincing himself that he was going to get it. And then the un thinkable happened. She started laughing! O I couldn't stop after that. And ever since that story has always put a smile on my face!

THE END

Happy Good Friday Folks! Remember the real reason for the season!
