Summer of '96

Yesterday I was driving home from Walmart and turned my radio to the country station (something I don't do very often anymore). Alan Jackson's song Chattahoochee was on and it just about brought me to tears.

There was a summer...I think it was 1996. Tina and I were home from college and we had zero luck finding jobs. What a fabulous time we had listening to country music (Alan Jackson, John Michael Montgomery, Brooks and Dunn, Tim McGraw), suntanning (just about every day), painting the house, memorizing scriptures, taking pictures, doing aerobics in the living room...and the list goes on. I can barely remember those days of being so carefree! Even though we didn't make much money that summer, those memories are some of my best.

Love you and miss you Tina:)
