THANK YOU to the GUYS at BIG Arena for putting up with me a few times a week; and NOT EVER giving me anything free!
Skating with Ava, Katie and Cory (this is only the 4th time in 11 years I have seen him skate and he's pretty good!) at the Excel Center Mom and Dad came to watch and Dad even took a few rounds on Cory's skates!

Got home Friday night in the rain / ice storm and pulled into the driveway around midnight after the game. The car only made it about 1/3rd of the way up then slid back into the snow; couldn't get up (ice) and couldn't get down (snow) so I left it right there blocking the sidewalk. I called Cory, in the house, and he helped me bring my bag in up the ice rink of a driveway.
01.23 Saturday WCHA: MN State (1) vs. Duluth (2) in Mankato (Just a friendly note: I have never experienced my partner falling into to the teams bench! The poor UMD team tried helping Coffee out, but couldn't push him up!

01.12 Tuesday: Watching Megan's Varsity Hockey game at Eden Prairie with Dad and Margaret; Chaska won in OT! (Nice work Billy and Tony; the officials.) This is where I almost get kicked out of the rink for not buying a ticket, but the rink guy said he was sorry for the confusion and I'm back in to watch the game... The Dad's on the Chaska team were trying to teach me how to use the new camera... I need to get the manual out and read it!

Tana; UR the Best!!! Thanks for the package!

(the last full season at the DECC - UMD is building a new rink, but I still think this rink has the most beautiful view of Lake Superior!)

(well known views in Duluth: the drawbridge, Grandmas; you haven't lived until you try the wild rice soup and a malt and the boats in the harbor surrounded by ice)
