My Friends consist of Brad Clark, Quentin Wainwright and a whole lot more people. My Friends are truly

great people,

and I am proud to call them friends.

Brad and I have been friends for very long time.

We go on trips all the time

An example of one of these trips is our trip to Washington D.C

Brad and I sometimes get together and Build Bikes

Brad would like to get his pilots license and join the Air Force

I will never forget the time I met Brad. We were at China Grove

Community Park. He was a daredevil. Brad was going to go half way

down the slide and jump off. So he climbed up the slide and started to

slide down. When he got about half way he slipped his legs over the

side and jumped off. He ended up dislocating his shoulder. We took him

to a friend of ours and he popped his shoulder back into place. Brad

and I have been friends ever since. He was six years old.

We had a fantastic time in Washington D.C. We went on the fourth of July, the

busiest time of the year. Brad and I went to all the museums and all the

monuments. Our favorite museum was the Air and Space museum. We went

there at least three times. Brad loved that museum. We also spent time at

the National Cathedral. Our hotel had a Metro stop right outside. We had fun

trying to figure out the Metro. Brad and I loved that trip to Washington and

we still talk about it to this day.

Quinton and I have been friends for three years.

He is much younger than I am

We went on vacation together.

We went to Williamsburg, Virginia

Quinton's Father owns the Goody Shop in Albemarle

He and I love to play basketball

We met at Cub Scouts.

He was a Bear Scout

I was a Weblow Scout

We went on many camping trips together

That is how we became close

Then he started coming over to my house more and that is how we

became best friends

In Williamsburg we had a lot of fun. We stayed in a Holiday Inn that had

a pool. We had the greatest time in that pool. The first attraction we

went to was Busch Gardens. We loved Busch Gardens because it

had a major theme, Europe. We felt like we were traveling from

country to country. Another place we went was Colonial Williamsburg.

We loved this place because we felt like we were transported back

into the 1700’s. Williamsburg was the greatest vacation I ever

took with Quinton.

All three of us have gotten together at birthday parties

One of these parties was at the Kannapolis Intimidators Game

We all got to go on the field

All three of us ,during the game , went to play all the games along

the ballpark.

We all enjoyed fireworks after the game

After that night we were all best friends
