The most noble memories flow back thick with Robby Packer and me. He was the friend that entered the world beside me and all at once summarizes a childhood. Few of my memories exclude him and the best days I’ve ever seen are in the humble creek behind his house (with water-skippers); building our own dams with the bed rock by the hours.
This picture is a romantic notion of nostalgia — best friends on the first day of Kindergarten… long ago.
