July 4th Week 2013 - Good Times with Old Friends

This last week, I went camping with old college friends at Pictured Rocks in the UP of Michigan and then hung out in Ann Arbor before college friends' wedding. It was great to spend so much time with old friends!

Friends are for...

• Feeding you a soft drink while you drive.

• Helping set up camp.

• Finishing leftover food.

• Manually steering your paddleboat's broken rudder.

• Fending off bugs in the middle of the forest with a towel (Thanks, Arthur!)

• Playing Nertz in the library.

• Reliving old times with you. 

• Carrying your fold-up chair for you because you're a cripple. (Thanks, Will!)

• Ironing your shirt for you. (Thanks, Maggie!)

• Dressing up together.

• Lending you a belt that you forgot to wear to a wedding. (Thanks, Jack!)
