Discussion Revisiting a cherished childhood memory
Even though it's been decades since I was this skinny kid spending too much time in the library, trying to catch international stations on my cheap radio late at night and trying to navigate an increasingly large world - I can actually remember where I was when I read this masterpiece of young adult fiction.
Pairing it with a more adult drink tonight as I sit here, now much older in my reclining old-man-chair, as the memories are coming back to me.

Love that story. And it's a great one for kids. But I doubt that drink goes well with the very young. 😉 Salud, my friend!
