[M.D. Holloway]

A few months back he told that after a few years of playing football he has decided that he will not play in HS and instead try out for the golf team. His rationale was a) it was a sport that he had total ownership in his success or failure b) it was something he could do with me c) it was something that he could do all his life.

I endorsed it. He is now in now going to his 3rd Jr PGA tournament tomorrow - his game improves at a constant rate. I think he may have a shot at the team - the are one of the best in the state. Entering freshman have to shoot under 105 for three consecutive games during the first week of August - try outs.

2nd heart 2 heart - Dad, I don't think I wanna go into engineering or science. I really love to fish and hunt and camp and I'm really good at it. I want to figure out what I can do to make a decent life doing what I love.

Hmmmm. The boy makes some sense for a 14yr old.
