I’ve been making good use of the heat by staying inside and converting all my old VHS tapes of high school football games to DVD. It takes awhile but is enjoyable. Its hard to believe that I have been out of coaching for 25 years. The VHS tapes were getting brittle and I almost waited too long to do this. However, I have used some 60-65 DVD’s recording the games and making a second copy. I only had a couple of tapes from 1982 and 1983; a couple from 1984 and several from 1985,86, and 87; only one from 1988, my last year to coach. Maybe the DVD’s will be utilized by some of the athletes at their school reunions or maybe just to let his kids see ole Dad back in the day. Anyway for whatever reason I think you should try to preserve history no matter how trivial it may seem.-gb
