It was one of those late June evenings-
warm, humid, still, birds singing and showing off in the leaves of the rich green trees. The perfect evening for spending time with old friends. old friends, who have gone through really wonderful times and milestones with me. Old friends, who have gone through really devastating and hard things with me. Walking the wooded paths that loop through the outskirts of West Traverse City. We sat and took in the sound of crickets, the late light of a summer sun, the distinct smell of the red pines around us, and of course the crackling of the fire. In the morning, it was the dawn chorus interspersed with the chatter of two women drinking coffee before I headed out on my South Dakota adventure. Old friends are good for the soul. Chris Stapleton said it well: "old friends shine like diamonds. Old friends you can always call. Old friends Lord, you can't buy 'em. You know it's old friends, after all"
