It is hard to believe that my departure to Finland is less than 2 weeks away now. We had our Trinity athletic banquet last night to honor our athletes at the school. It was a bittersweet time for me. It was strange to think that this would be my last sports banquet. I will miss working with the student athletes at Trinity and watching them grow and mature both on and off the field. I will be saying good-bye to everyone over the next weeks, except for Ben Jones. Ben has been a running back here at Trinity over the past two seasons and he has signed a contract to come play running back and receiver for me in Finland with the Crocodiles. I am very excited for Ben and this wonderful opportunity. It is a dream come true for him. He has a very contagious passion for the game and is one of the toughest competitors that I have ever witnessed on the gridiron. I believe he is going to do very well for himself and our team this summer. Ben and I will be flying out together from Fargo-Chicago-Munich-Helsinki. The team management will be picking us up in Helsinki along with the other American and British players and then transporting us back to Seinajoki. We will then begin our practice routine on the day after we arrive in town.
Going to close out for now. I have to head home and prepare for my yard sale tomorrow.
I don't like going home to an empty house. I really miss Estalita, Kamryn, Kodie, and Kaylin. I am looking forward to seeing them again soon.
Lights out.
