Weeks Fly By

I went to Orlando, Florida with my husband for his annual work trip.  We were only there for a few days.  We arrived on Monday afternoon to rain.  Tuesday was windy, cloudy and cool.  My husband was in seminars all day while I walked around Walt Disney resort area.  Wednesday was better for weather and I sat by the pool and just slept.  In the evening one of the resorts played the movie Frozen on their beach.  Thursday was the warmest day there that I actually wore my swimsuit.  It was too cold though to go into the pool.  My husband had almost two hours of free time and sat by the pool with me.  Friday morning and we are on the plane back home.  Oh how I didn't want to go home but three days was just enough since I couldn't do anything without a car.

Two weeks later K came home on her Spring Break from college.  A had our spare car at college so K would have to use my truck for work and going places.  Bad news, our boarding facility didn't have any spare hours to give her to work.  Then my truck needed new head gaskets which took the whole week.  On top of that, it was very cold that week.  By the weekend, K was ready to back to college.

Two weeks later, A came home for his Spring Break.  It was nice to have him without either of his sisters.  We also celebrated his birthday.  He turned the big 22.  Still no job, but his classes are going pretty good.  We are still so proud of him.

Here are a couple of pictures from the trip to Florida.

Another well written article from this writer.

I felt bad for the Wild's other two goalies after reading this article.  But very happy for the new one, Devan Dubnyk.  This article states why Devan has proven to be such a asset and great decision for the Wild.  It looks like the team has made a turn around and maybe headed for playoffs.  The use of stats and the chart adds to the ease of understanding what the author is wanting the reaers to know about Devan.

Have fun reading and love to read your comments about this article.

Along The Board Links

Another great article.  This was a interview with a student at Notre Dame University that grew up in Minnesota.  His dad is the coach of the U of M Gophers Hockey team.  This player is being pursued by the Wild to play for them.

I enjoyed hear Mario's thoughts and feelings about hockey, Minnesota, his family and future.  This was another well written article from the interview  I think it is always tough to come up with questions to ask that lead to answers that come have a whole article for.  Enjoy reading this.
