The beloved Simons family is back at it.  Growing up before our very lenses.

Tommy, brother of Abby (who’s a supermodel), has one of the coolest (and strangest) summer jobs I’ve ever heard of – he’s an underwater landscaper.  Basically he puts on scuba gear and hand-weeds peoples’ beaches.  He’s also studying computer science so he understood all of my PHP jokes.
