Hi Everyone!
Good to see you!!
We watched two games. Friday night, Kingston Frontenacs whipped the Peterborough Petes, this afternoon. Today, Coteblanche's cities team played and the Frontenacs lost today. The Ottowa team was on fire as the Frontenacs had beat them on their own ice. It was a rough game!
What a sight to see my grandson alone on the ice going down toward his home goal like a steam engine. He is huge, 6 feet tall, 195 # and all muscle. Not to mention handsome. After the game he joined us for dinner at a local hangout. All players must wear black suits. We were treated by the managers to free tickets to both games. Our trip up and back was safe, we did get delayed a little while at customs due to a back up there, Otherwise, clear sailing all the way home. Did run into some rain made driving for my daughter a little hairy.
Kingston, Ontario is the nicest city. It's all flat land, whereas I am accustomed to hills. The oldest buildings are constructed from limestone and are so beautiful.
Canadians are swell folk! But we know that don't we?

It sounds like a fun weekend. Congrats to the Frontenacs on their win Friday night and as for the loss yesterday - there's always the next time they and the Ottowa team meet!
Glad you had a safe trip there and back.
