Hey, my dad's going fishing for the weekend...

With a bunch of guys from work. Hmmm, what can we do? What could possibly go wrong! This girl I knew was having a birthday. And she had a boyfried that had graduated from Grissom a couple years earlier? Okay, I'm a bit old, and have lost some of the details. Anyway; 'let's have a party'! My mom will be home, but she won't mind...

So, what started out as just a few folks over to listen to some live music, turned into cars being parked up and down the street for blocks in every direction imaginable. And yes, someone called the cops..... Whoopsie!

So I come out of the house to meet them, and one of them has his hand on the side of the pickup truck parked in the driveway. So he says, "I hear there has been some drinking going on". As he is eyeing the 1/3 full pickup truck bed full of empty beer cans.

And a freind of mine stumbles over, and wobbles around a bit, and says, "there's no drinking going on here".

Thankfully the cops were nice guys and told us to keep it down and they left.

And my 84 year old mother still remembers, with a big smile on her face, how a bunch of the girls would drift upstairs from time to time and just chat.

If I left out anything, or if anyone remembers any other 'interesting' things from that night; please let me know. I won't describe all the 'stuff' we found the next day in the yard...
