Mayne and
Alberto are
87 and 83 years-old. Each day they walk to Cherry Street Park to watch the flowing St. Johns River and young people enjoy life. They talk about
their childhood and the joys and failures. Their bond keeps them alive.
Mayne and
Alberto
meet a 14 year-old boy in the park, Jason, and decide to take him under
their wings and teach him something wise about life. He isn’t
interested. A policewoman, Officer Simpson, becomes involved in the
story because of their conflicts.
Officer Simpson and
Jason teach Mayne and Alberto as much as they learn from the two old men
who die trying to get one more day looking at the beautiful river at Cherry
Street Park.
