Hockey Day Minnesota: Part 2

Hockey Day Minnesota.  Good time, fun was had.  And my sister and I went to see Minnesota's current team play Minnesota's former team.  (Norm Green sucks).  If there was one game I wanted the wild to dominate, it is this one.  There is always emotion when the stars come to town.  I was pretty little when the North Stars went south, but even I still have some emotional attachment to them.  The North Stars, not the Dallas stars, they do have some players I enjoy watching.  Kari Lethonen, Loui Eriksson, Eric Nystrom (scoring in his return).

Hockey Day Minnesota: Part 1

Hockey Day Minnesota happened last Saturday.  There were fun to be had across the state (apparently).  I went with my sister to a charity event in Roseville (I think).  My sister was volunteering and since we had plans that night, I went with.  The event was for Defending the Blue Line.  Defending the Blue Line is a charity that helps the kids of soldiers afford to play hockey.  You can check them out here or on twitter.

A Natural Bridge!

So, it has been really snowy and cold in Minnesota this week.  It has barely been above 0 for a few days.  So I've decided to use my blog to take a little trip to the desert.  Southern Utah to be exact and the Natural Bridges National Park.  Travelling a bit back in time for this one too.  Fall of 2007 (and there might be a pic or two from Spring of 05).  Natural Bridges was a quick side stop on my desert trip that year.  The fun thing about southern Utah is that there are such awesome national parks and they are rather close together.

Hockey Night in St. Paul! Sharks @ Wild

Josh Harding, stud.

There is nothing like a hockey game to get me blogging!  This time it was the Sharks @ Wild.  My sister and I headed up to St. Paul to see the game with a friend.  We had gone to the science museum earlier and in a kinda ironic (but not intentional) moment we saw Sharks on the Omniteater.  Adorable.  The other Sharks, not so adorable.  But hey, that is what makes for a good game.  And it was quite the feisty one. The Wild led most of the game, but seemingly fell apart with 10 minutes left.  The sharks pushed it into overtime and then the shootout.
