My brother and I would swim until our parents MADE us leave the pool. <BR/>This story brought back memories of how much I enjoyed those times.<BR/>Your old-as-the-hills dad probably would only remember that story as a huge night of problems, but as a kid, even nights when all goes awry, the stars still capture us.
