Catching Up With Mr. Werdi During a Spur-of-the-Moment Lunch at Tullys - from 9th Grade To Junior Year of College

Woke up on a Friday, wrote a few recommendations, went for a run, ordered a sandwich tray for evening festivities, and even met Werdi Mugaya for lunch at Tully's. Mr. Abdi was supposed to show up, too (we made arrangements with him), but he never arrived. He didn't call, in fact, until we were leaving, but we got our lunch in anyway.

Great catching up with him on his summer work at a few camps, his first semester at SUNY Brockport after transferring from OCC (and replacing the twins), and the normal stresses of being a first generation American wrestling between home culture and a new culture. We've been working with one another for around 8 years and it has been amazing to see him grow up as much as he has.

In the meantime, it was a night of pool and ice-cream with the nephews (and a trip to Wegmans....I got my Asian BBQ sauce...a few bottles actually).

Today, with the high temperatures, we definitely plan on a pool and game day to stay refreshed.

Here's to the Crandall chaos.
