The beginning of the end

It occurred to me yesterday that May is the beginning of the end for me here in Monterey. I only say Monterey because I plan to stay firmly connected to Coach Daniel long after I've left California. I've been fortunate enough in my martial arts career to train with some really amazing instructors, and I have to say that Coach D is at the very top. I don't want to turn this into a love-fest for fear that you guys will start laughing or puking....or both :) BUT, seriously he is a mentor for me that can not be replaced.

So, tonight I'll to class again and try to soak up everything that I can. I plan on rolling with every scary dude in class (which always includes Dev!) and take my bruises with pride :) July will be a tough month for Chelle and I knowing that we're leaving. I don't get emontional about very many things, but I'm pretty sure this one is going to be tough.
