Tuesday Andrew had a soccer game at 4:30. We left for the almost 18 mile away destination right after school. Along the way we saw other RCS soccer players driving in the same direction. Once we arrived at the school we were puzzled because there was no soccer field. I asked a man going into the building if he knew where the kids play soccer. He said they play at the Auburndale Speedway (that would be one town over).
I found another mom looking for a field and she contacted the coach. He told her to go to the school parking lot and wait with the other RCS players for him to arrive. We did that and then followed him to Auburndale.
While driving and getting closer to the field we noticed a lot of dark clouds starting to form. As soon as we parked the boys jumped out of the cars into a down-pour. A few minutes later it started to thunder and lightning. The boys had to wait 15 minutes. By then it was just raining a little so they started to play. After 5 minutes it started to thunder and lightning again. The boys stopped playing and we waited. The thunder and lightning did not go away, but we did. Blah.
Today Andrew got to play soccer. He scored a goal. His team won. Yea!
Test
Yea Andrew! Wish i had been there to see your goal!.
I’m glad Andrew scored a goal. Playing soccer in the rain was probably a lot of fun even if it was only a few minutes, but I don’t blame them for not taking any chances with the thunder and lightning.
