I did do some things with them, like fixing their broken bicycles and stuff. But mostly I went on my own and made some money doing lawns and yard work... I got to meet lots of nice people and that is when I really got to make friends with the girls. You see while I was mowing the lawns and doing yard work all the boys were out playing somewhere.
