The Soccer season is officially over -- what to do now...

My first paid coaching job (soccer) was a success.  So many great things happened this year for our team.  So good, in fact, that I’ve been asked to come back next year and coach again.  I really had a great time, we had a great season, and I was sorely sad when the season ended.  I’m looking forward to greater things next year.

It seems I always have to have something extracurricular to do, though.  I coached basketball last year for 8 straight months, along with coaching my son’s SAY soccer team to tournaments.  I’m still waiting to hear if I’ll be coaching basketball this year or not.  I really love coaching, but that may not be what’s in store for me this year and I accept that.

But, with coaching off my plate (at least for now) I needed something else to do.  Lo and behold, I was asked last night to replace a guitarist in a local band.  It’s neat how things work and how one thing is replaced with another so quickly for me.  I must be doing something right. 

I play a lot of different instruments, but have played guitar for the last 21 years.  I hadn’t played guitar in any public venue since I was in my 20’s, but, lately, I play several times a week in my local church group, and have done so for the last year or so.  It’s given me a chance to practice and get my “groove” back on.

Anyway, here’s my new “gig”:

I’ve been involved with this band in one way or another for the last couple years.  Helping out as a sound check man, roadie, etc.  It’s a great band with a LOT of potential.

Wish me luck.  I’m really excited about this.  You may see/hear us around sometime.
