This and That...

This past weekend we received yet more snow.  It was fairly significant and actually began to accumulate somewhat on Saturday morning, before eventually beginning to melt again.  By next weekend, April 20th, we will have had snow on the ground continuously for six months...!!!
The weather seemed to turn the corner a little today.  Perhaps mother nature felt a little sorry for me on this day, my 50th birthday.  Half a Century....  Not much to say to that.  Perhaps I just need to sulk for a few days and get this out of my system.
We are still stuck in conditions at least 10 degrees colder than it should be at this time of year, but it is starting to feel like we are finally edging towards spring... slowly...
The Renegades played the second game of the championship round last night.  I was hoping for a birthday gift of victory, but it was not to be... at least not yet.  Our entire winter season comes down to one last hockey game, to be played this Friday, against the Gators.  The winners get their names engraved on the championship trophy.  The losers will be bridesmaids...
There is no honor in a second place finish and we are building ourselves up to play our best game of the year and do everything that we can to earn that trophy...
