hundreds of photos looking for some gems to remind everyone that yes, we were young once

The recollections and corresponding emotions that came with the photos were intoxicating and I felt so lucky to have enjoyed so many unbelievably great moments with friends and family over many years
When we arrived at the party on the beautiful Saturday afternoon, I was so happy to see so many close friends together again after several daunting years. A couple dozen or so pals from elementary and high school years were in attendance and though we rarely see everyone all the time, we made up for it on that night The backyard garden was awash with chatter and laughter and the stories and reminiscences were hilarious A bunch of 25-year-olds trapped in 60-year-old bodies didn’t deserve to have so much fun
Knowing that we would not be driving that evening, we spent the night at my family home, which was a short distance away. My mom still maintains the home and meticulous gardens at 81 Brunch number two ensued in the shade of the towering rhododendrons One again the memories poured in.
I hope that spring turns your memory machine on too!
