Looking back on all the summer's I have had, it is hard to choose just one memory. Despite all the good times, there is one memory that seem to float up to the surface of my mind and put a smile on my face.
Growing up in a small beach town on the coast of North Carolina made access to the beach almost an every weekend habit. I remember waking up early to the sound of Dad throwing bags of ice in the cooler in the kitchen. With my bedroom being above the kitchen this sound was like an alarm clock to me. Not the annoying buzzing sound that alarms make, but the sound of something exciting. It was time to get ready and go out on the boat! Mom would always find time to do what I wanted the most. Ploping me down in the middle of the kitchen on a stool, I'd always ask her to do my hair in "pig tails" because I thought it matched my binki. I was eight and thought I had fashion sense. Our boats name was called the "Miss Bee" but my sisters and I called it the honey bee. My family and I would race over to one of the small, isolated island and make camp for the day. The sun shining down on us, the breeze on our faces, and the smell of salt in our lungs was the best feeling anyone could give us.
My uncle would gather us together and we would walk along the muddy banks listening to old story of Black Beard, the Pirate. I would always look out in the ocean where his ship, Anne Queen's Revenge, sank to it's watery grave. It chilled me to think that some people sail over it's resting place without ever knowing. I also enjoyed quietly watching my favorite spanish ancestors, the horses of Shackleford banks, or "shack ponies" as we called them. When my family would get home, we would wash up and grill out in the backyard. The smell of hot dogs and hamburgers filled the neighborhood, and kids from all over would come and play. I can still see my dad flipping the burgers with his slightly pink skin and cold beer in his hand. This memory is why I love summer, and will continue to.

Here is what i did this summer,Well i went to camp for a nightly walk and of course it was a girl guides camp and so we had to use the buddy system. Anyway...My friend Abby and i went out of the camp around 12:00 for a night walk to get rid of our anxiety and what ended up happening..well 15 minutes after we went out for our walk the camp noticed we were missing so they had all of the camp counselors searching for us,when we were almost back at camp until i tripped and fell.
The cliff near the road was high i fell but during mid-air my friend Abby tried to grab me to pull me up until she came down with me,so we both fell but before that we heard "ABBY,LINDSAY!!" It was so annoying. Ga Anyway so the white van like car saw us and we were waving our hands to get help,of course when we got back we were lectured and asked what happened,why we did it and all those other boring questions. But now guess where i am,home! We were kicked out and sent home,the head director wouldn't even wait until the morning of course even though it was (around 3am to be exact) but they did*’t even give us a second chance!! But in our defense we DID follow the rules to be exact the rules stated "NO WANDERING ALONE!!! But we used the buddy system so you know what i mean!This is a true story and my right hand,is killing me but at least I’m home for my birthday!
And that was worth being kicked out!

On Nov. 15th my husband of 23yrs was killed. Me an our son was left with nothing the mortgage company came an took our house it wasn't in my name. We are living on my an his disability. We got 20,000 from insurance an put it down on a house. I just got a letter that my son is losing his disability money. I have been though so much an lost so much these past few months that sometimes I wonder where I'm going to find the strength to keep going but somehow I do. I promised myself I wouldn't fall in love again but I did an to a wonderful man I met in game. He has been there for me every step of the way helping me see that things will get better. He lives in Scotland an I'm in the States, he is flying over in August. He makes me smile an laugh though the tears an pain I would be so lost without him an my son. Thanks to the game I have a second chance at love.This is a true story

I spent one summer working at a camp away from everyone I knew. My job was to teach people field archery and crossbow shooting. We were messing around one day when there were no campers around and had the brilliant idea of firing blindly in the direction of one of the shacks. We couldn’t see the shack or anything around it due to a hill that was in the way, but we managed to stick arrows into it multiple times. It was a pretty proud moment in my life.. until the director showed up. That was the best summer ever.

This summer I went Zip-Lining. It was one of the most exhilarating things I have ever done. I was suspended about 150 feet in the air and zipped from the top of the 150 foot tower and traveled across the line for about one mile.

Ah summer. A time of sun, frolicking through the sprinklers, and eating all those burgers, hotdogs and barbeque ribs. Summer camp is always the highlight of the summer. If you’ve never been to a summer camp, I urge you to go. It’s a great experience. Perhaps the best memory I have is of me and my best friend canoeing on the lake. There were other campers doing it as well, and since I had pulled a few pranks, my victims decided to come up and tip the canoe. Rest assured that I ended up wet, but laughing the entire time.
Story complete! Best summer of my life. Pullin' pranks, all day 'erey day.

Well, you see...
During the summer of when I was, oh, maybe five, we went to my cousin's house and of course, my father gave me peanuts for the first time. Ate them. No problems. Then that night, while watching The Jungle Book (gotta love that movie), he noticed me turning a little... blue. Now naturally, most five-year olds aren't blue, so that clearly pointed to a problem. Anyway, my dad called the emergency hotline, 911 for which my mother works. My mom notices our number come up as an incoming call, so she takes it. *Short version* My very worried parents watch me get helicoper-ed to the hospital to have the peanut I inhaled removed from my lungs. Ah, summer memories. :)

Let's see. My totally awesome story.
I went to Pismo Beach Dunes for two weeks, and since then I've been on runescape. I've gotten 99 cooking, and i'm working on some good gp methods.
I HOPE YOU LOVED IT!
Your best friend as always Jagex,
