Coincidentally, I [[and my siblings) were in Lexington, as well. That's where we spent our summers, and that was the July I turned 13. I was supposed to receive a birthstone ring from my parents [[with a real gem and tiny little diamond. I was so excited). Unfortunately, the jeweler was located somewhere near 12th Street, and my parents, who lived on the east side, could not get over there to pick up my ring until late August.

A trivial, meaningless memory, but one of the most clear I have of that summer.
