Meg's Yellow and Black Hair and Topless Cartwheels

• my white mohair dress with black velvet trim I wore to Eileen's wedding - my first lined dress
• straw Easter shoes with little baskets at the toe
• burgundy patent leather Easter shoes
• forgotten shoes for Church left at the shore, having to sit with my feet tucked under a chair
• brown paper bag packed for a weekend getaway in the spring and fall - heading to Cape May
• returning to school with "yellow and black" hair - it was sunbleached but a classmate didn't know that
• blisters on my nose and shoulders, peeling them all summer long
• hand-me down bathing suits I coveted, even though they were too big
• borrowing rafts and skim boards from girls and boys who had them and never returning them til 5pm
• cartwheeling on the hard sand and losing my top every now and again - weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
