Three years ago, I waited on my porch for an ambulance that drove right past my house. The numbers on my old plastic sign had faded to a ghostly beige, and at dusk they were invisible from the street.

My brother and I spent three hours that first Saturday arguing over serves, missing the ball in the bushes, and laughing until our sides hurt.
