Tell Me A Kid Story

Speaking of siblings....

My sister is almost exactly a year younger than I am, so we didn't really have an older/younger dynamic. We were just jerks to each other in different ways. It's all good now, but there were a few years when casual bloodshed was the order of the day.

My infamous friend Bruce and I decided to go into the tall weeds-of-unusual-size out by the water. I don't remember if we'd planned to start a campfire there or if the idea occurred to us (him) when we arrived. What I do remember is that I personally had no matches.

Later the family and I were sitting at dinner listening to the news which was reporting a serious brush fire out by the lake. I got scared and my parents could see it so I confessed that Bruce and I had built a campfire there and it had kind of gotten out of hand...

I remember Dad saying, "What?!", then quickly, "Don't tell anybody else."
