I like this guy Tim - as a native Chicagoan, and currently a proud Pittsburgher, I appreciate the shout-outs for both cities. I've never heard Travis say nice things about either city.
And wow, I competed at the Radnor Three-Day Event, one of the most prestigious equestrian events in this country. What a small world!
I swam in high school, too. You are right on! I had the best coach. He was insane. If you pissed him off, say by being late or lazy, he would write on you with permanent marker. I know it sounds deranged, but it was actually funny, after the fact, and we all LOVED him. Coaches are super important to a kid's growth!!
Oh great Jenn, you were one of the ones responsible for me having to drive over dirt one weekend a year to get to work 🤣 (I worked for my dad at the pool when I got older).
Permanent marker? Ok, any former players that complain about me cussing at them can go pound sand. At least I didn’t write on them!!
I did swim and diving in high school and had morning and afternoon practices. I’d spend so much time getting ready after morning practices so I wouldn’t wear sweats and have bad hair to school. Now it’s the style! Weird times.
I think your assessment of big time college sports is spot on. That world ain’t what it used to be. Also, I found your description of the pool environment to be quite vivid. Well done!
Just came here to say there really are few things better than a dog in a jaunty hat.

Travis doesn’t say many nice things 🤣
Thanks Bill! I can find a good thing to say about almost any place. Except maybe St. Louis....
Thanks for the shout out! I’m glad Logan enjoyed the book. And I appreciate the review. Books 2 and 3 are coming soon!
He’s already looking forward to them!!
I loved Paradise!

They say everything comes back in style if you live long enough Morgan 😉
It’s so strange that you grew up right down the road from where I worked in Radnor for a bit…and I also lived in Berwyn and Devon for a bit.
Strange indeed. I grew up in West Chester.
Ah. I thought you went to Radnor. Perhaps I misread that.
No worries, my dad taught HS there.
