Nothing Like Old Friends

     I just returned from the shore Monday. A long-time friend went with me. There was just the two of us, we had such a wonderful time, it was hard to believe that we had not  this done before. We were 18 and 19 years old or so when we first met. That's a long time ago. If you remember S. Klein's in Newark, you know what I am talking about.

We did nothing but enjoy the sun and the ocean. Oh, and talk, talk, talk. Not excessive chatter, no gossip, no whining, just good girlfriend talk--thank you. We probably learned more about one another than we had ever known. And *still* the bond is there, laughing.    

I had been lamenting to myself about this friend thing and found that reaching back can be an excellent idea.
