“You keep on doing that, young man, and your face is gonna stay that way!”
And the caffeine kicks in…
He’s not stumblin’! He’s rumblin’! He’s Chris Tumblin!!
Tumblin, the sandlot guru who led Central Whidbey to a state little league title, is celebrating a birthday today, so we offer a few moments with one of the best coaches Whidbey Island has.
An assistant coach for both the Coupeville High School football and baseball teams, when he’s not working at his real job at Whidbey General, Tumblin brings out the best in photographers.
I was thinking about running a photo for every year he’s been alive, but I was wasn’t sure I had enough bandwidth to hold that many photos … (rim shot!). Thank you, I’ll be here all week. Please tip your waitress.
But seriously, happy birthday to a great guy who excels as a husband, father, paramedic and coach.

But only today, okay? :). Congratulations!
