Summer of 2000, I think "Cold Missouri Water" (sorry--I don't know who wrote it, con't have my copy of the cd that I heard it on) It's a song about a firejumper in Montana and since I was just in Missoula,MT during what the locals said is one of the worst fire seasons in 50 years--that song will probably bring my trip to mind. It was rather hard to appreciate the amazing beauty of the area when it is impossible to see the mountains because the smoke is so thick :-(

Summer of 1975--Springsteen. I was 16 and a guy I knew took me to Asbury Park for the day to see Madame Marie's and the tilt-a-whirl, etc. I still remember the bikini I wore that day, and the fact that Steve liked it, too :-) ahhhh, youth.
