Origin Story

We met when plaid bell bottoms, lunar landings and Deliverance were all the rage. Bill Withers allowed us to lean on him and Melanie had a brand new key. There was a reproduction 17th century square-rigged ship in our town's harbor, and a statue of King Massasoit on a hill overlooking the bay. All around us were the hum of protests, Vietnam, Nixon, and horses with no names. Join us as we Go Back and Tell ourselves what we remember about the beginnings of our life-long friendship.
