We were Best Friends in elementary school at North Aurelius through 6th grade. The monkey bars on the playground became the the Starship Enterprise for countless adventures in outer space during recess. We played Baseball, Softball, and Football together, both in our front yards and for the school team when we got a little older. We rolled out the sleeping bags and camped over night sometimes in your living room and sometimes in mine. You and I rode our bicycles together up and down Columbia Road between our homes, looking for pop bottles so we could ride to Darrells store on the corner and buy a candy bar, pop, and maybe even enough to get a Superman comic book. Rob……It was only yesterday. See you when I get there.
