Some of you know that I work a second job as a volleyball coach for competitive clubs in the US. I started doing this as my youngest kid grew up, and I was looking for a hobby. I ended up coaching at the club where she competed and kept going when she left for university. Eight years later I still coach kids from Nov-May with my wife.

This weekend I’m traveling with my team of 17-year-oldsto compete in Las Vegas on Fri-Sun. A couple days off from work, to do more work, but it’s fun. I love kids and working with them, seeing them grow and change, succeed and fail.

I also like getting away from technology and watching the competitive nature of sports.

I’ll be back late Sunday, with a morning flight Monday for work. Hopefully I won’t be too tired from the weekend.
