My cousin and I got to spend a lot of time together this week. We arrived at the beach house at like 1 a.m and me and him end up talking for like an hour, or so it seemed. He's wanting to go to the army, which is really cool knowing the kind of kid he always was. Whenever Christmas gift buying season came along the general idea was John Wayne stuff or guns. One visit down there he shot a bird, I don't know what kind of bird, but not one you're supposed to shoot. My grandparents made him skin it and eat it...tasted like chicken.. Troy also taught me how to put spin on a bowling ball, maybe the most memorable thing I have asquired from him. Troy might not like this but I'll say anyways. Every night we would take a walk down the beach, kind of romantic huh? All we had was each other, whats a guy to do? Something about being in the unmessed up part of God's earth brings out the truth and love of people. Outside of mind altering drugs I can't think of anything in our world that provides this. I keep telling him to come visit, maybe he will one day.
