Summer , wsop etc

I hope you all are having a good summer so far. Mine has gotten off to a different start then in years past. Normally I am in the middle of day 3 of my "Florida swing". Every year for the last 8 years , after memorial day, I have headed to Florida with my family. I have a lot of clients there and we meet and talk about the summer and beyond , I meet with the radio stations that carry my show and obviously hang out with my family. It is a great time to shut down my engine and get it back to neutral. I get some work done and play a bit. This year is a little different. My son is playing on a more competitive baseball team and we are staying in Oklahoma for that along with basketball, football and other camps. I am trying to balance my kids need/want to improve in the things they are interested in and my desire to what I want to do. Exactly. As most of you know, that is really what parenting is all about. Some people balance this better than others but parenting is the ultimate compromise. Monday we got so hot at my house we went to Sams and bought an above ground pool. Because we are normally gone in the summers, it wasn't important to have a pool when picking out our house but this year it became important. The good news is , it wasn't that hard to put the pool together. The bad news is we put it on a hill that made the pool slant about 20 degrees. We have the first above ground pool in history that has a deep and shallow end. After much debate with my self proclaimed "family lifeguard" wife we are draining the pool and moving it to a flatter spot in the yard.

I just landed in Vegas for the wsop. I will be here for a few days and will send updates with any exciting developments on my twitter account. Nba is ending great and the summer baseball is going great. 9-2 in the last few weeks and ready for a great summer ! Lots of guys taking advantage of the early bird 2011-12 season package prices. If you are planning on going to Vegas or playing in the fall , now is the time to get signed up. Have a good week!
