They look alike, walk alike and even have the same rub spots on their pants where their shoes hit on their ankles when they walk. Their "twin talk" is fast and abbreviated as they supplement words with nods and hand jesters leaving us in the dust as we try to keep up.
As much as they are alike they are very different. David is our writer and traveler, packing his life in a small bag ready to go at a moments notice. His prized possessions are his journals and they are never far from his side. Tony deals better with a life of structure. Scheduled days of classes, dive practices and working in the research lab defines his life. David lets his hair grow long, Tony keeps his short. David's jeans are rolled up above his Jack Purcell's, Tony's are full length to his Sperry Topsiders.
Their gift to us is a unique view of life. Two identical twin boys but yet so different and we have loved watching them both grow into their own identities.
