Oh, to Be Young Again...

I remember, when I was a child, going out on the roof with my brothers and sister and looking down at the sand pit behind our house. (We lived near a river, so there was tons of sand everywhere.) My sister, who is a few years older than me, turned to one of our youngest brothers and said, "Dare ya to jump off." Of course he disagreed, then she got a big towel and a Burger King crown and put them on him. She marched him to the edge of the roof and said, "You'll be king of the roof if you do." Of course, this didn't make him budge. So my sister, being in her not-so-nice phase, pushed him. He landed and we all stared to see what he would do. After he got up and said it was kinda fun, we all jumped off of the roof and into the sandpit. We did that for hours.

What does this have to do with JT & Tea? Well, I thought to myself, "What would be awesome this time of year?" I remembered that jump and thought again, "What would have made that jump irresistible to me?" The result...
