Sixth Grade

On Monday my best friend Chandra and I hung out with our sixth grade best friend Josie Carou. In sixth grade Josie moved away to Montana, we had all been the best of friends through middle school. Thanks to the power of mail we were able to write her occasionally and keep in touch. Over the years we really didn't keep in touch with her that much. We grew apart but Chandra and I stayed best friends since we lived so close to each other and because we went to school together. In our later years we started writing her again but since the Internet was then so popular Chandra became close friends with her again through Facebook. The power of the Internet has brought us back together again. Josie came back to her original home of Illinois last week and texted Chandra saying "I'm home, when are we going to hang out". So on Monday we picked her up from Hoffman Estates and we all took the train down to Chicago.
We hadn't seen her in ten years since sixth grade. She looks exactly the same though, shes still her bubbly self. Nothing has changed about her at all! We were at the art museum almost all day and then we went to see the bean, had lunch and walked around Chicago. We left at 8:00 am and got back home around 7:00 pm. It was a very long day with lots of walking but it was great fun. Josie loved being back and seeing where she used to live, seeing the middle school again and visiting the city. After all these years we finally got to see her again. Next trips going to be a road trip to Montana, she wants us to come out to her house and visit her.
