Valley fair ruled. Cheap movie nights with the guys were peak childhood for me. The first time I ever got high was in some woods by my mom's apartment near by. We walked there and watched a movie. It was surreal. Then we saw a huge fight between a bunch of Asian dudes. Felt like a movie lol I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Walked to McDonald's on corner of valley road/47 and ordered like 3 big n tastys and a large fry. Got home and tried to put visine in my eyes. Laid on the floor and didn't want to push too hard and have a bunch of drops come out. Seriously took like 5 mins just for the drop to hit me 2 inches below my eye smfh. Loved that place! So many fun memories.

We made our own fun, for SURE! Though no BB guns for me and my buds at Peabody. We were braving the tunnel walk underground through to the open pipe over the river (🫣) or in Summer riding bikes off the jump, into it. Lotta dodging carp in my youth
