            This summer couldn't have been much better.  The football season was on my mind early.  There were many workouts held at the high school field which a great portion of the football team attended.  We had workouts a few days a week preparing for the upcoming season.
           Also my friends and I were always very hungry, so we ventured out to transit road many times in search of a great place to eat.  Often we ended up going to Ted's Hotdogs or Jim's Steak Out.  I literally spent my paycheck on food and gas.  Yeah, it was awesome.  We would always stuff our faces til we couldn't eat any longer.
           This summer my family and I didn't go on any summer vacations.  The majority of the time we relaxed by our pool or hot tub.  My mother made great dinners throughout the whole summer.  Her mashed potatoes and grilled chicken was my favorite. 
           This summer I started to work a little more than the previous summers.  My father owns a restaurant in which I bussed tables and washed dishes two to four times a week.  Everyday I worked there I would try to order a different item off of our menu, but it never worked out because I could not steer away from our mac and cheese or burgers.
           Also this summer, I have hosted many wiffleball games at my house.  It was always a three versus three game or a four versus four.  My team consisted of a couple of pretty talented kids.  My teammates were Brandon Hassenbohler and Zach Miner.  Miner built himself up to be an incredible player but my expectations fell short when he kept dropping fly balls and didn't ever hit a home run.  He is slightly average at best.  Our opponents had some sluggers on their team.  They were Brian Stoldt, Ryan Snyder, and Michael Steffan.  I would say the best player on their team would have been Ryan Snyder.  He hit the most runs and was great in the field, he was a complete player. 
          My summer was great, but there is always a time each summer where you need to stop having fun and focus on football.
