Country Girls

Country girls are so great. They love to rebel. But, being in the country, it still seems so down home old fashioned that it keeps a sense of innocent good fun. Like take these two, for example: climb up on the corrugated roof of a farm shed with their swim suits and beach towels and flip flops. 

It gets hot on the metal roof, and since no one is around to see, they have a little fun and slip off their suits. One has some smokes. They laugh. The window between youth and adulthood--savoring all the freedom of adults, and none of the responsibilities. It's sometimes a narrow window. Sometimes a single summer in life. When it happens, though, how sweet it is.
