My friend Fred (known since the 3rd grade) picked me up and we went to grab a bite. And somehow we ended driving through Castle Square. We both grew up there. Man, it was a little surreal. I wish I took pics. Memories of living there and playing out in the parking area. The people, roaches and mice. Made me stronger and able to deal with anything!
Between the colonoscopy (won't go into details but they were looking for a cancerous cyst) and driving through the projects, I realized how lucky I am. Where I came from and where I am now. Life is good.
