Extremely fortunate and humbled to be coaching basketball 30+ years. I am very grateful for all the relationships with coaches, players, and parents. I "GET TO" travel on a bus to another away game. No "HAVE TO" about it! Lets Go Storm!.

One year ago yesterday was quite a day! Good days and tough days in the past year but always thankful/grateful for family, friends, doctors and nurses. Michele (who fits in all of those above categories) and I celebrated at the George Strait concert. 🎵 I cross my heart ❤️

Getting together at family reunions is always fun. Lots to talk about including the upcoming Simpson Storm basketball season. I may not get much "pub" this year. all talk could be about the Indiana Pacers. Congrats Nate and Go Pacers & Go Storm! #together.

Life lesson? After late practice last night and another snowy night! I don’t like to drive over the snow in our driveway because I don’t want it to stay snow packed until spring. Michele would not let me snow blow last night and said it was no big deal. (Continue).
