My Memorial Day Weekend Adventure

 

            
             I remember receiving an invitation in the mail on a clear blue day last .
             My hands shook with pure excitement as I opened it, to my surprise it .
             was a joke that my brother was playing to the "gang." The "gang," as we .
             called it to signify unity, was based on my brother and his girlfriend, my .
