Got to see the boys today.




Hockey night

Got to go see an NHL game (Canucks v. Flames)'Saturday
Night. Thanks Andy!

Left after noon, sailed through the border crossing and had enough time for a great lamb dinner.

Got some cupcakes for Adrienne, no she won't share. I was tempted to take one but didn't because she was home with a sick baby. Luckily the car didn't get booted, since we forgot to pay. Paid the parking on the way to the arena.

Get to the arena and security tells me I have to check my lens, because it's over 75mm. Ohhh Kay.

They didn't see my 18-135, so i shot with that.

Got a few pics, no great ones.

LIGHT-FROST-POCALYPSE HITS PUYALLUP !!!


Lightly frosted windshields and frozen small puddles are reported to litter south Puyallup this morning.

Motorists are warned to heat up their cars so their butts don't get cold. Young children are warned not to slide on puddles "so you don't fall down and crack your skull wide open"

Less on this developing story as it's cold and I can't type well on my iPhone.



Pictured: light frost on a glass picnic table
