I really thought they might postpone in class studies-and for sure cancel football (in which case he wouldn`t have gone) but they didn`t. Really going to miss him-but who knows if they will stay with the current plans.He could be back sooner than we expect. Had a little "goodbye party" for him last night and our daughter`s friend arranged a phone call to him from Ronnie Cruz,who graduated from our local high school and went on to play for the Kansas City Chiefs. He gave him a pep talk about the possibilities this can bring for him-in spite of the difficulty of leaving his gf and his family.My youngest daughter posted this this morning-we are all so proud of him!

"Today my nephew Alex Adams leaves for quite the adventure and is following his dreams by leaving home here in Northern California to play football on a full ride scholarship at Central Methodist University in Missouri to continue his academic and football career. 💚🏈  Playing sports teaches you to have self-confidence. People with high self-confidence are not discouraged by defeat or failure. They can learn from their mistakes and use those lessons to create success in the future. Alex, you’re smart, well-spoken, kind, dedicated, funny and we as your family are behind you, cheering you on!! YOU GOT THIS!!!!

CMU is located in a nice area....just a few miles north of our favorite casino. They aren't having the issues and concerns, regarding this CV, like the larger universities are.

Thank you,Don.Makes me feel a little better. He is staying at his other Grandma`s tonight-she lives in Fulton. Then tomorrow he`ll move into his dorm. Apparently the school has gone to great length to ensure that everything is kept very clean. We are planning on making a trip or two out there to see him play-IF they allow spectators,but I`m not sure they will.
