Muscatine, IA

Last soccer tournament of the season, then we're done for the summer.
Muscatine has a nationally recognized soccer complex, and I can see why. It's gorgeous, grass is perfect. Peyton's team is playing their age bracket (instead of playing-up one) and they won their first game at 8 am this morning (2-1).

Most everybody on the team is staying at the Days Inn in Wolcott, IA and driving to the complex (about 20 minutes). We drove down last night and Scott got both girls teams registered. Right now we're all hanging out in the air conditioning and the kids are taking a quick dip in the pool before resting for game 2, which starts at 2 pm.

Tomorrow morning we play the same Geneseo team we beat in the Midwest shoot-out. It should be a good game.

The girls are having to adjust to the 6v6 (six players instead of 8) format and the field is smaller so the game is quick. They managed well this morning, just barely pulling off a win against a team from Grand Rapids MI.

More later. Time to get #8 out of the pool.
