Oy, I'm exhausted. Great weekend in Pleasanton. Ran into friends visiting from Belgium and hung out with them. Stella's team played SUPER. They had one win 6-0 with Stella scoring one of the goals. In the other two games, we outplayed the opponents, dominating possession, but we were not fortunate enough to make our shots count. We lost 2-0 to Santa Cruz County Breakers and lost 2-1 to Castro Valley. The four goals against us were bizarre. While Stella's team possessed and passed the ball, the other teams got lucky with right place, right time opportunities. We did not capitalize. None of it matters as Stella and her teammates played hard and well and I am sure that 2-3 more months together will bring great results.
Now, I am changing gears, sifting through our camping stuff to get ready for our backpacking trip. I forgot that the girls still can't go heavy which means I will be carrying the bulk of the gear...:-( I tested the water purifier and the stove and both seem to be working fine. They will be carrying their sleeping bags and pads and whatever else they can tolerate. I will be carrying roughly 50lbs. I hope my joints hold up! ha! I am pretty tired. I hope a good night's sleep recharges me. Pretty excited to hike into the backcountry.
