This Spring Ross had a difficult decision to make - play lacrosse or travel. After much personal debate he chose to take the summer off and travel. He also got a part-time job for the first time. As much as this concerned me I decided to stay out of his decision. He worked and trained very hard during the season which was a tough one, I'm not gonna sugar-coat it. I think he really needed a mental break as well. To keep in practice though he enrolled in the Navy Lacrosse Positional Training Camp. Initially I thought, well another lacrosse vacation. We'll make the best of it as always. Then I began to look into the area and began to get excited. Not just for him to receive such excellent training but for us as well to visit such a beautiful area. But more on that in another post.
The highlights are captured here:

| What a view, I'd have a hard time focusing! |
On the drive home we got all the details on the boys week and I'd say it was a success. Each learned a lot about the Navy, leadership, teamwork, character, integrity and of course lacrosse. Our Ross even got two "looks" by area colleges and they have contacted us already. I guess this is when it begins.
He is so ready, I am so not!
Proudly born in the USA,
