30 seconds of solid memory. Footage from 1992. And making pizza with my oldest friend Ben.
Ben and me in 1992. We are 8 years old. When my mom shot this it must have been a test video or something. Nothing special at the time. Just 2 boys playing monopoly. Now it's 30 seconds of solid gold for me.
You never know when you create what will have value and when. Therefore create.
Ben is the oldest friend I got. Today I asked him if he wanted to come with me to my favorite store on the planet. HANOS.
They have such great food there for Lunch
We went to Hanos to buy ingredients for making pizza for his wife and his kids and us.
If you want to have the best pizza. Order them. If you want to have fun make em yourself.

He has two boys. This one, the youngest, was not long ago diagnosed with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. I said start blogging on Steemit. He said he already wrote a story. I said just get it out there man.

Beautiful video, buddy! And how special is the fact that you guys are still friends to this very day! Man, stories like that just warm my heart. Very touching indeed.
Well, I'm a little late to the game but I can already see me and you still chilling together after many years! Walking sticks and all, lol. Talking about all the drama when Steemit was just starting out and how now everybody is using it like it was always there from the very start of social media, lol! The good old times, we'll call it way in the future! :)
Love that treasure of a video clip. You look so cute (Hope you don't mind me saying that, lol). Thank you so much for sharing, brother and keep Steemin' on!! :)
Man, I love that clip too. I think it's the only one in existence of me and him together at that age. Maybe we all live in 'Steemit home for the elderly blogger' one day, lol :D
I had a big smile on my face as I watched the video of 2 friends playing Monopoly as boys and then seeing the pictures of them sharing a day together as grown men. Our time is ours is this life, and how and who we choose to share it with is our choice alone. That is what I think is so magical about friendship, 2 people choosing to spend their allotment of time together.
I see you wasted no time in firing up the Green Egg and you even let Ben man the wheel, he must be a good friend! :)
Sage advice to the little guy, there's no time like the present to make your mark on this world. Great post. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
We had such a great day yesterday. Going to that store, playing with the egg and stuff. Just wonderful. He such a good guy. O and that egg will be on a lot this summer...and fall...and winter...o and spring.. :) Thanks for your thoughtful reply!
You're a very welcome! :)
Pizza! Nailed it! Or maybe... almost nailed it! Still counts! :D
Oh i haven't watched my old videos when i was a child for so long.
Sweet memories ho-ho-ho.
Where i was dancing naked kicking shit from guitar strings))
Pizza almost nailed it counts! lol! that made me laugh.
Good post, but
Thank you, it's fixed!
lovely stuff, very moving :)
Brings back memories when last did i play monopoly :) . Looks like you had a good day Life is Awesome ! Thanks for sharing
I'm sure he will be on Steemit in no time! The pizza looks really good for a first run on the egg! But whatever that is for lunch at HANOs looks incredible
Oh wow Really nice photography, And the best photography award goes to your Mom :D :)
There's nothing like old friends @exyle! That pizza looks amazing. I just had lunch and now I'm hungry again.
We can't get much older friends than we are. We first met as babies :). The pizza was decent, but lots of room for improvement! It was fun though!
I am about maybe 12 years old when that picture was taken LOL. Suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome after coming home from school. Nice friend you have great foods too, yum.
