Twenty Six Years Ago

I was driving to work today when it hit me: The same gray skies; the same misty rain; literally the same exact day. I had come to Seattle from Atlanta Georgia to play soccer for Cliff McCrath, and we had been on Whidbey Island at Camp Casey for tryouts. The weather was perfect, and we were preparing for our first tournament over the Labor Day weekend. We came back to Seattle, stayed in the dorms, and my first full day in Seattle was a day just like today: The same gray and foreboding skies; the same misty rain that is barely there; the same cool temperature- not cold, but definitely not like the hot and humid south. Twenty six years ago.
