Mike explaining …. something to Rick. Who knows.<\/p><\/div>\n

In 2021, even more cousins decided to make the \u201cJourney To Lake Webster\u201d- Mike, Rick, and David McCurdy. What, you ask, there\u2019s another Mike McCurdy? Wasn\u2019t that confusing? Not really- the other Mike is MUCH older and could barely make it up the steps, while his brother, Rick, while younger than Mike, is still incredibly old. Good thing David was there to feed them and make sure they were in bed by 7pm every night.<\/p>\n

Well, we thought they were in bed. It seems every night the scamps found a way to loosen the bed restraints and come out to prank us youngsters. Like the time they took up Sean\u2019s drinking challenge- Sean actually thought he would be able to outdrink those boys. I knew better. Sean does now.<\/p>\n

They were so polite to Sean, so kind and encouraging-\u201cHey Sean, have you ever had an Old-Fashioned? No? Here, try this\u201d and \u201cBourbon and anything is delicious, as long as you drink in sufficient quantities\u201c and \u201cTequila is best when mixed with whiskey\u201d and \u201cThe gas tank in your car is an excellent source for mixer.\u201d Sean, bless his heart, would reply \u201cReally?\u201d and \u201cOkay\u201d and \u201cmmmckbblasaghh\u201d and then he was really quiet for about sixteen hours. David, who watched it all in alarmed amazement, also pitched in with his own comments to Sean, like \u201dNo\u201d and \u201cDon\u2019t do that, Sean\u201d and \u201cThanks, now my shoes are ruined.\u201d<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s the cool thing- despite their advanced years, all the cousins picked up the basic rules for McCurdy Wiffle Ball instantly and ended up being pretty decent players, markedly better than Sean who spent most of the time in an unconscious heap just behind home plate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
