Garrett flew to Tennessee, this time by himself, for a week of training in media. Brett got up at 2:15am to drive him to Oakland for his 5:20am flight. Interestingly, Brett saw Mike Zendejas in line for baggage check-in and discovered that Mike would be on the same flight as Garrett for the first leg to Chicago. Mike had played HS baseball with Brett and was a stand up teammate. Brett had also had Mike's older brother Julian as an assistant coach on his Freshman team. So this was one way that God was comforting Brett sending his son across the country on a flight by himself. Garrett had cash for lunch in Chicago, but little did we know that the airport had gone cashless, so Brett was able to get a card # to Garrett so he could order food for lunch. Finally he arrived safely and had a great week with 11 other students making both individual and group project videos such as Celebrate the Journey and Caught Red Handed. Brett picked Garrett up at 12:40am and arrived home around 2:30am. No more early morning or late night pick ups please.
