10-21 (21/1/23) -- Centre Ice

Today I shoveled twice to get the driveway and walkways cleared. There were some light bits, but a lot was wet and heavy. It was difficult to determine actual snowfall, but it seemed to be over 15 cm ( 6+ inches) Some areas were clearly well over this level while most of the area were about 15cm. I got some laundray done between shoveling bouts today. Then, as a treat, I got some takeout for supper -- Chinese food since tomorrow is Lunar New Year. 

The day was also the 23rd annual Hockey Day in Canada sponsored the Scotiabank and the television networ TSN. A marathon of recently past games played all day. Each of the sevel Canadian NHL teams were featured in these games. Now this was new to me -- sad given that it has been happening for 23 years. It seemed odd to have key past games showcased, but then I don't spend too much time watching hockey games on television. This day celebrating hockey in Canada brought one song to mind, written and performed by a Canadian legend -- complete with plywood. <grin> Keep safe. Enjoy!
