I haven't seen hockey played anywhere since (much less by girls). U.S. football? Sure.

Had real hockey sticks, but no net, and our goalie used a push broom for a stick. It was very informal and we all had great fun. Haven't been back on skates in more than fifty years. Winning didn't have much meaning. It was just for the love of playing, so it was a gentle game.Taken For Grantedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763027485732267570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17947028.post-66134926364760741152015-01-24T11:02:02.735-05:002015-01-24T11:02:02.735-05:00You did a wonderful job of framing this photo!
