My travel home got delayed from my work trip to Sicily due to ash from Mt Etna. I made it in time for Dungey’s 11^th birthday. Tyler has been doing a great job filling in as the center. Jake and I camped this weekend for a race he did Sunday.

Celebrated my 54th trip around the sun. Tyler has been doing great in Football. More racing trophies for Jake.

School has started for both boys. Tyler is driving himself to 10^th grade (he hates sitting in traffic) and Jake started a full load of classes at Miramar College today. Tyler’s football team won their first game of the season. He is a starting guard on the O-line. Jake and I did a grand prix race up in Big Bear on the ski slopes. It was a technical track but fun. Jake placed 2^nd in his class.

Tyler is enjoying his last few days before school starts. Football is in full swing with helmets and pads. They had a scrimmage last Friday evening between the varsity, JV and freshmen teams. Jake is finished with his summer pre-calculus class and has a couple weeks off before the fall semester begins. We went to a BBQ yesterday and the boys chauffeured us. This having kid's thing is finally starting to pay out dividends 😆
