friends

My childhood bud Jay and I hiked Ken's in 2hrs Saturday morning.  Even though we just reunited 4yrs ago after 30yrs I consider Jay one of my oldest friends.  His family moved 2 houses from my Grandparents when he was 5 and I was 7.  DD and I spent a lot of time at my Grandparents so therefore Jay and played a lot together.  Mostly front yard football and chasing the ice cream truck.  All very fond memories.  

We moved to the south side of San Antonio the summer before my 7th grade year and my Grandparents moved at the same summer so Jay and I weren't reunited until he was a freshman and I was a junior in high school.  I don't have much recollection of us really being friends again until the next year.  We were both hurdlers and I gave him rides home from school occasionally. 

Flash forward to sometime in '09.  We were hooked up my by old neighborhood pal Chuck Dakin and found out we've lived within 5-6 miles of each other for many years.  We've really hit it off again and become very good friends the last 4 years with many more to come!!
