Story Summary:

After dropping out of high school, seventeen-year-old Zach moved in with friends to a house on Ann Street in Columbia, Mo. Under one roof, the various occupants and temporary visitors were family to each other despite differences in belief or background. Zach and housemate Tin were two of the primary residents, and went out together most afternoons to collect spare change for food and beer. After dark, the house became a social hotspot and frequently hosted amateur music shows in the basement. In August, 2008, Zach, Tin, and several of their friends moved on to Denver, Co.
