This was taken on July 4, 1983. My mother and grand mother had come to visit us in Hawaii for my grand mother's birthday which was on the Fourth. We went to our favorite beach and as soon as we got there Mike ran out into the water about waist deep. He began screaming immediately and I ran out to rescue him. He was right in the middle of some jelly fish which was stinging him. Some Hawaiian guys put some tobacco on the wound to draw the poison out. Mikey cried himself to sleep and slept the rest of the day. He kept a scar from that sting which was visible for almost twenty years.
