Your dad and Curt surprised me big time. Your dad has never been a great secret keeper but he pulled this one off like a pro! When we were on the plane yesterday I asked him "are the Canucks playing this weekend" "Yeah." "Well why don't you and Curt go to a game?" "Oh we'll NEVER get tickets, It's been sold out for weeks" "oh, that's too bad, that would have been fun"
We lo and behold, this morning he drops the bomb, "we're going to the Canuck game!" WOW! He tried to get tickets from every supplier we had, but to no avail, so courtesy of the Hamhuis family, we are going! I've never seen a Canucks game let alone an NHL game! I've been to one pro-sports game and that was many years ago when we lived in Chatham, and your dad and I went to Tiger Stadium. So I really am pumped! Curt had brought his Hamhuis jersey to Las Vegas, to wear during a poker game (so he said). Well they never let anything leak until this morning. We're going to have a blast! So THANK YOU Dan and Sarah!
It's very very cold here in Vancouver! It is actually snowing outside. There is also a real biting wind. Amazing how you can be relatively close to a region, yet the weather can be so different.
It sure is great though to be back in our own country, where you know what to expect. People are regular folks. Even without even speaking, we stood out as Canadians. I wonder what did it. I am proud to be Canadian though. What a great country we live in!
So unless something else exciting happens today, it is farewell for now.
have fun tonight party animals!!!
