Please go to the boathouse, Rich, and listen to the rain fall and the lobstermen call. These are the moments that build our lives!

This is a great ode to lifelong friendship. Thanks for sharing.

I have a good friend - the kind I don't remember not knowing, we have pictures of us as toddlers sitting on my parents doorstep, and pictures of us at each others weddings.. that kind of lifelong friendship.

We will go months without contact and will often just check in with a few messages by phone every so often to see how things have been. And when we get together in person, maybe once, twice or threetimes a year (if there is an occassion) we just fall into a groove like we've been hanging out non-stop.

We have our own lives now, and we respect that and just see where it takes us... but we stay in touch when we can and we appreciate it... and its the memories and associations that you reference here which remind you to pick up the phone and just...check in.

You nailed it, David! This guy's like a big brother. We can pick right up where we were, no matter how long in between times together. I'm blessed to have him, as you are with your friend!
