Is it possible to be too exhausted to type?
There was not a moment that went by where we were not touring, training, eating, hiking, walking, tight-roping, or team building. If fact, we stayed so busy that we landed at the ranch about an hour behind schedule.
The morning began with an hour and a half tour of the athletic facilities at the University of Montana. It was with a tremendous amount of pride that I was able to “show off” this great university. We ended the tour by invading the University bookstore. I think we made a few more Griz fans out of the boys.
After the bookstore, we changed and spent two hours practicing in a Division I stadium. The practice was lively and we did continue to make strides on offense and defense. In fact, we had each of the kids make an attempt at punting and I think we found a few candidates!
Once we finished practice, we headed towards Missoula’s Parks and Recreation headquarters for low-ropes challenges, team building activities and a mountain hike to the ‘M’ on Mt. Sentinel. Every coach and player made it! The view was well worth the challenging hike.
After finishing at the Parks and Rec, we stopped for quick showers at Stevensville High School before heading home. We then made it to headquarters for an awesome dinner of BBQ Chicken and a special chocolate dessert.
I’m calling it a night. The kids should sleep well tonight!
Good Night and Go Foxes!
