Sold the Taylor yesterday.
In a not-so-distant past life I was a soccer referee. Started with AYSO, then as time went by and I got better, took on more competitive youth games, adult rec leagues, and finally high school. I got in the game too late in life to go after college or pro levels, but I did get to officiate league championship and state tournament elimination matches. It was a lot of fun and I met a lot of good people.
One of those people is a Facebook friend, and when his nine year old son who's been playing for six months saw my ad ten minutes after I posted it, I got a message. We set up an appointment for him to come and play, and I thought this might be fun -- I've been playing for about 15 months, he's been taking lessons for about six, and maybe we can show each other some things.
Well, he showed me some things, and I had nothing at all to show him. Kid's better than I am in all measures other than rhythmic consistency.
So, I did what anyone would do. I got his teacher's name and number. First lesson is this coming Tuesday.
The GS Mini is exactly what he wanted and it's a great fit for him. I hope he loves it as much as I did, and I hope he goes far with it.
