Summers
February 23, 2021
Brad would stay at our house a lot during the summer when we were kids.
Some times in the evening after dark, we would sneak over to one of the neighbors and help ourselves to apples that grew on trees in their yard. In August they were still on the green side but we didn't care.
There was a school across the street from my house and they had a dumpster that was up against the building. I guessed that we could climb on the dumpster and get on the roof. We were just about to make it up to the roof when a patrolling police car spotted us and the chase was on. We didn't make it too far before being caught. After we plead our case that we weren't vandalizing anything they let us go.

One summer I had firecrackers that I sold to a friend. He and another guy would come over and hangout with Brad and I. For some reason that I don't remember I wasn't with them but they got the idea to stuff some of the firecrackers in an aspirin bottle. They were at the house behind us and Brad got talked into lighting the improvised exploding device.I heard the explosion. I was glad I wasn't with them because sure enough, the police showed up again. My final story was abou a young woman that lived nextdoor. At night when she was getting ready for bed she would change in front of her bedroom window and let it all hang out. Brad and I sure enjoyed that.
