    I remember the time Darlene and I went to universal studios. It was so much fun got a the log ride hit the water and Darlene is madder than a wet hen Her hair got wet She said to me I just got my hair done do you have a comb no all I had was banana clip in my hair . After trying to fix her hair in restroom. She gives up with a statement of at least I'll never see any of these people again. We leave the restroom and the guy at the ride asks if we want the picture hell no I don't want that memory. I laughed so hard giggled every time I think about that day I will miss you and loved you more than words can say!
