“– But it took longer than I had hoped. It is tough, it sets up a plan that you think is the best plan, and when you can’t really follow it means it’s somewhere I’ve gone from being the best plan. But I think I can lean back on that I have done a good season. This is not optimal, but not totally crap either. “
