Your "feel good" twitter thread

My cousin Mikey baby-sat me once. He lived in Seattle and didn't know my area at all, so he asked me what there was to do. I told him, well, there's a couple arcade games downtown. (I think there were literally two at what is now a Sheetz. Random.)
So we walked over, and when we got there, he got us some food and swapped out a whole twenty in quarters. I couldn't believe it. We played Golden Axe for easily four hours, it was awesome.
On another visit to my grandmother's when I was older, we all woke up to a note on my grandmother's kitchen table. "Gone North" was all it said. He hitchhiked up to Atlantic City (nearly 400 miles east), stayed for 3 days, won a pretty decent amount of money and hitchhiked back. He was like 24 or so at the time.
Mikey's a nurse now. His brother Ben is a lawyer and has always been about the most straight-laced guy you'd ever meet.
