Back in the saddle again....

Well, here we go again. It’s the start of my 30th year at New Plymouth High School. With the retirement of a middle school PE teacher last year, I have now become the teacher with the most seniority in this school district. While it’s nice to have all that experience and respect that comes with longevity, it also means I’m older than dirt. I can retire with full benefits in two years, and believe me, the count down is on!

It’s also time to start another season with idahosports.com., which is something I never want to retire from. (Oops, ended a sentence with a preposition, but I am not an English teacher, thank heavens).

I look forward to blogging for all you readers out there in web land, and I really look forward to doing some play by play again, which is a job I truly love. I’m really not sure how it all came to be, but I consider myself extremely fortunate to be able to a job that I consider a dream job.

So I’d like to thank my good friend and the CEO of idahosports.com, Paul Kingsbury, for allowing me to have all this fun. And I’d like to start the year off with a good, clean joke I heard this summer: How do you kill a circus? Go for the juggler………
