After six weeks of teaching swimming for Klein High-- My college roommate, Marg and I left for San Antonio---her daughter's beagle had been killed by a car-- 20 miles form the house--- she is the one that got Marg. and I to get beagles-- Digger and Mandy.
Anyway, she needed us and and we needed a break---- First time is my life that I had been away from home for six days--- was a great experience--- we walked--- 4 our 5 missions---state parks----traveled the Hill Country-------shopped--- sat in lawn chairs in the water--- climbed Enchanted Rock---- Made it to the last set of boulders--- could go no more---air was thin and we were go red faced------ felt that if we made it to the top-- we couldn't get down alive.
We returned Sat. afternoon and I have had alot of naps----------when you are use to working for 40 years--- it is hard--- to catch up on your rest----my body says rest rest rest---
Rita, high school tennis partner at Jeff Davis, made a great collage of the main events of the Davis Cup---had it framed and plan to put it up in administration. Still working on six bulletin boards for the Library.
Aug 10 thur 17th-- I will be traveling to DC with grand daughter Lien--- a great adventure.
Just hard to realize that I will not be going back to teach.
My last year was my most rewarding and the hardest. Need a young person who will continue our program-----someone who cares---I have great kids----- and expect Jonathan and La Shaun to go back to Regionals.
Life is never boring.
Please do not call me about who is taking my place--- I was promised that they would find a dedicated person to replace me.
I am thankful for the Wayne Bryan Family--NFISD & my many great memories.
Love, Coach H
