Summer of my youth Part 2

As I have been reflecting on my "summers of my youth" I couldn't help but remember the good ole "Love shack". The love shack was a old oilfield office Dad had brought home one summer with thoughts of making it a storage shed.......we had other plans. The picture above is a floor plan of the shack cira. 1991 or so (sorry for the floor plan, but I deal with blue prints everyday and its all I know) It was pretty simple, but really; we had simple needs. The walls pasted with Allisa Millano and Debbi Gibson Bop pin ups on the wall and a couple of beds and it was ready to go. It was about 50 feet from the house, so we ran a extension cord from the house that provided all the power we would need for 1. A light 2. The T.V 3. The Nintendo/Atari. Many hours we spent trying to conquer the likes of Pitfall and Space Invaders till Lloyd "Super Squirt" Helmky would come over with his coveted Nintendo. The only games I remember playing a lot were California Games and Double Dragon, and man did we play them a lot. Mom and Dad refused to let us call it the "love shack'', so in their presence we had alternate names but when it was just us it was always the love shack, baby. Come to think of it I can see why our folks didn't want us calling it the love shack seeing as it was only us guys ever in the thing, but none the less it will always be the "love shack". Even as I go home and see the old thing filled with all of Dads junk being used for the purpose it was brought home to be, I still remember late nights playing Nintendo, smoking cigarettes and having a good old time spending those summer nights in the "love shack''.
