Ran into the best wrestler in Alta High history and former student of mine, Matt Findlay, near the summit and had a great chat. He was a four time state champion in high school and is now a doctor in his first year of residency in neurology at the University of Utah.

More parent-teacher conferencing. Did manage to walk 8.6 miles throuought the day and did 200 push-ups.

Andy did well on the ASVAB today so if he passes his physical tomorrow he will be joining the Marine Corps. I'm proud but trepidatious.

Andy passed his physical today so it looks like he's leaving us. I guess that's the idea right?
