We’re a few days behind here, but we met Dominic and his family last Thursday, June 13 at Grizzly Creek near Glenwood Canyon, CO. We had just returned from a run and were tossing a disc in the parking lot when Dominic’s family arrived. They took an interest in our throwing as they were unpacking their rafting equipment, so we struck up a conversation. After explaining what we were doing, we asked Dominic if he would like a disc. Since he hasn’t played much Ultimate, he was pretty pumped to have a disc  so he would be able to hone his skills. Here he is posing with his mom and sister and his new disc, courtesy of Jane and Kevin Wagner-Murphy.

The first day of our road trip saw us get as far as the Twin Cities! With just under two hours and a hundred miles under our belt we’re feeling, well, pretty underachieving. That being said, we did find a deserving recipient for our first disc donation. Two year old Zack Anderson was slightly taken aback by the honor, and even a little hesitant to accept such a gift. But once his mom reassured him that the disc came to him courtesy of his Nana Banana (and Schasse’s mom, Marilyn Zmuda) he couldn’t wait to have Schasse show him some cool tricks. Better be careful though, Chris. It won’t be long before Zack is showing you a thing or two!
