"I PLAY BAASSSS!" would best describe how my brother in law, Mike, would best describe our friend, Chris. Indeed Chris does play bass. He is also a father and loving husband to Julie. And just like how I would say the reason I know Mel is the one for me, Julie is the one for Chris - They both put up with our shit. 

Chris is truly a kid stuck in a man's body. I'll always remember him as the guy who, just last week, ran down a dark mountain slope in the middle of the night with lit roman candles in his hand. 

As we grow and become of age, there is no doubt that moments between us have grwon seldom. Life happens. And when the opportunity rises to capture a friend as he grows and matures comes along, you take it. 

Congrats, my friend to the new addition to the family. Peace and love always.
