I wanna go too man!
After Mark came home from diner with George, we started watching the movie right away but after, I asked him what he and George were planning for their next trip.
They are doing another couple of boat charters.
Down in Key West.
Color me jealous.
I have never been to the keys since moving here 10 years ago. Mark hasn't been either, but George and his wife Amy are planning a trip down for a weekend, and they want to take Mark.
That is so cool.
I of course said yes, absolutely he can go.
George has been the male influence Mark has needed.
Mark talks to him about everything, and George talks to him, keeps his secrets, but also tells me things I should know.
When George asked Mark to be a part of his wedding 2 years ago, he said Mark was like a son to him, (he has no children of his own) and so he wanted Mark to be part of the biggest day of his life.
Mark had helped him pick out the engagement ring, pick a date, place to go on the honeymoon, what to give Amy for a gift. heck, he's the one who convinced George to make an honest woman out of her.
So while I'm jealous I don't get to go with, I'm so happy for Mark.
They are best friends as well as big and little.*
George and Mark are big and little through the big brothers big sisters program.

One thing I have always wondered... Does Sebastian have a Big Brother?

Other than Mark of course:)

Yes he does. His Big's name is Dave and they see each other a few times a month. They are both 'new' to each other, so they have not been approved for any overnight or camping trips yet.
