The Day I Took Out a Palm Tree and Broke My Face

Here is a little story that happened many moons ago….many, many moons ago.
I was 13 years old and living on a military base, we were stationed on Anderson AFB on the tiny island of Guam. Which by the way I hated and I do not recommend anyone go there to visit, but that is a separate subject.
As a military brat, living on the security of a military base, I rode my bike pretty much anywhere on the base, as long as it wasn’t a restricted area. One sunny hot afternoon I went for a bike ride with a boy that I had a little crush on. Looking back I have no clue why, he had a rat tail and wore those “Hammer Pants” with a tank top. I know, makes not sense to me either, so glad my taste improved.
Ok back to the story. Guam has a lot of steep hills and cliffs, so you can get a workout riding your bike. I am chilling trying to act cool because you know I have a crush this boy and then he proposes that we go to this one particular hill on the base. He says it is really cool. I was down with that. Although I had no idea what I was getting myself into or what was about to occur.
