Picture Perfect Passage 4

     



An Unforgettable Summer 

      It was the first night of summer and my friends and I all gathered around the campfire to celebrate. Everyone lays their chairs in a circle around the fire. We do this every summer, sitting by the fire for hours. We sat while the smoke made its way towards the sky, the smell of wood burning, and the hot air pressing on our cheeks. Endless laughter, talking, and singing were all to be heard. We shared stories and just talked about everything that was on our minds while roasting some marsh mellows. We shared past memories of our childhood and the memories created throughout the school year.  Moments like these are the ones you remember. We had all grown up with one another, so it was special. Soon enough it will all be over and it won’t be the same anymore. We are getting older now and we will be going our separate ways. All we can do is live in the moment and hold no grudges. Growing up with the people you call your best friends creates an unbreakable bond. We can’t even think about not being able to have our tradition anymore of sitting around the fire the first night of summer. Already I can tell that this summer is going to be an unforgettable one.
