8/01
In August of 2001, I had a rare weekend off and my brother came to visit us. We had a great time. We played some pool. He took full advantage of our cable internet connection's downloading capability. C wowed him by counting to twenty. He wowed us with his spot-on Jerry Lewis impression. We drove up the mountain with the top down and walked around the waterfall. We went to Dairy Queen, where he had a 32 ounce Mountain Dew float (yeah, ewwwwwww.). We had a lot of laughs.
Sunday evening, he grabbed a cup of coffee, folded himself into his green Saab and drove back to Laramie. It was the last time I'd ever see him.

"Mountain Dew Float" -- you still drink "Hillbilly Margaritas" in his honor, don't you? ;)
(Sorry; I have to have levity or I'll start crying)
Keep writing, E...we're still listening....

Never could develop a taste for Mountain Dew.
And you should never apologize for levity. ;)
