Here’s what a member of the sporting press accomplished on a lovely morning in July …
5:15 a.m./ In a revolting development, alarm goes off
6:00 a.m./ Load wife, sister-in-law, mother-in-law and baggage in the car
6:30 a.m./ Deliver them to airport for flight to Phoenix and connector to Tucson to visit brother-in-law
6:40 a.m./ Bump into Mahtomedi football coach and nice guy Dave Muetzel, who’s flying off on vacation with his family
7:00 a.m./ In day’s second revolting development, dine on drive-through breakfast
7:30 a.m./ Arrive at a metro high school to observe summer football workout; chat with coaches, watch drills, enjoy the scene
8:45 a.m./ Arrive back home; walk the dog, hit the blog, begin formulation of nap strategy
Have a great day!
