It all started with the line, “I’m craving some ice cream”. This summer I went to the beach for the first time without my family. I guess my mom finally thought I was “mature enough” to go to the beach with her watching my every move. My friend Savannah invited me and a couple other people to go with her on her senior beach trip, since we just had graduated from Florence High School. The group consisted of Mandy, Ashley, Savannah, Savannah’s parents, and I. We took a 4-hour road trip to Pensacola Beach in Florida.
