LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION

"There are 364 properties on the market in this county and 11 are under contract" - realtor April 2014.

Prophetic words.  I was unable to sell my house and was stuck with a 2K rent in Midland plus a mortgage, home insurance, etc in VT.  I loved the coaching experience in Texas but the financial burden was too much to endure.  I was fortunate enough to get a teaching position at Hartford Memorial Middle School, so I will be teaching middle school social studies.  This will allow me to commute from my house in West Burke and save 25K.  From a financial standpoint it was a no-brainer.

In the end it is extremely disappointing that my Texas coaching career was so brief, but on the other hand I'm excited to be back in Vermont surrounded by family and friends.  I sincerely hope that the Lee Rebels will have a great season, so too the LI Vikings and the NCU Falcons.

To sum it up, I will be out of the coaching business this fall.  This will give me an opportunity to see what normal people do in the fall and be part of the FFCA - LI Chapter.  Operation Texas is not over, its on hold...
