It took Forrest a whopping few minutes to regain his huge self-confidence, and by then he had already determined his next venture. Remembering all the fun he had in his last couple of years in high school, he decided to head back up north to meet with his friends during the summer. Forrest found his way to Charlevoix, and while getting gas, he ran into a few people. Miraculously, every girlfriend he had ever had was getting gas at the same time. Yes, all two of them were there.
