Four friends are growing up during the 1960s. Sometimes things go well. Sometimes they face the sort of difficulties that teenagers have always faced – minus the modern technology. Join Carol, Greg, Jennifer and Ellen as they make their way through a driving lesson, the difficulties faced by a competitive runner, a day spent on Toronto’s Center Island and summer jobs. There is fun. There is loss. But always there is friendship.
“My God! What have we done?” exclaimed Carol.
“Looks like she’s made a decision,” replied Ellen.
“Yes, but what’s going to happen when she comes to her senses?”
“She’ll probably return it.”
“You can’t return bathing suits! The store doesn’t allow it for hygienic reasons.”
“Hmm, you’re right. I guess she’s stuck with it then.”
“Do you think she’ll buy another one?”
“Jennifer? I don’t think so. She doesn’t like to spend money unless she really has to.”
“Well, in this case she might really have to.”
“I don’t think she’ll see it that way. I think she’ll tough it out.”
“But what about when we get to the island?” asked Carol.
“Well, they don’t have changing facilities so we’ll have to wear our bathing suits under our clothes; and when we get to the beach we’ll just take off our shirts and pants and there will be our Jennifer in all her splendor.”
“She’ll die of embarrassment!”
“You’re right. I’d better remember to bring my camera and a fresh roll of film.”
“Ellen! You’re awful! Poor Jennifer is going to die and you’re going to take pictures. Maybe I’ll bring mine as well.”
