Sunday Afternoon All four windows of that metallic black pick up truck covered in mud speckles were down. The sun illuminated the flawless sky that Sunday afternoon. Our vehicle was loaded up with my favorite blue pin striped beach chair‚ several kick balls‚ a cooler filled with water‚ and two of my best friends.
