torrid summer months. You see I never really had an actual vacation‚ since my father had been gone for eight long‚ dreadful years. He was sent away to a prison thousands of miles away‚ in Florida‚ when I was only six years old. My loving mother talked about ancient vacations we took‚ but I was too young to remember. My father was back home and he was as healthy as a young doctor. It was now summer of 2010‚ and I was ready for a family vacation. A ride to Rio Frio River is like a flight to a Caribbean

Families were gathered for a fun filled summer day.

Through a miniature window on the far side of the room‚ I could get a slight glance of the steaming pasta noodles that had been drenched in luscious red spaghetti sauce‚ before the waitress guided us to our seats.

It taught me to appreciate my body and not to beat on it constantly. I also feel grateful that I do have a very healthy body. Although my knee does hurt all
