Canadian, Eh!

Why so many parked cars?

*********************************


They are parked close to that great Canadian pastime... pond hockey.

*********************************


They may look disorganized but these guys and gals know exactly what they are doing.

    Here the cars would be bicycles but otherwise.

    A nice sport to do in the open air.

    In Minnesota, in my youth, we did the same thing. Had great times. A nice memory-jerker, Andy, thanks!

      Many a NHL player learned their skills from doing this way.

    Love to see so many folks (especially younger ones) enjoying the outdoors. Perhaps they were out celebrating the NHL lockout being settled.

    Now that the NHL is back, they might have a few less spectators. ;)

    This reminds me of moments living in Boston in my long-ago college years:) Nice, fresh winter captures!

    As a kid I played hockey on a pond near our place. Had a great time. Thank for the memories.

      With the changing weather the outdoor rinks are now rare.

    For Canadians, a flashy car is medium gray, I see!

      Only the rat rink variety of Canadians drive gray cars:-)

    When I was 7 years old and visiting relatives in Newfoundland we went up to the "pond" to skate. Many years later I went by the same pond and had no idea how we were accomplishing anything as it was about the size of a 10x10 bedroom! I also remember sliding down snowy front yards on pieces of old linoleum...seriously! Thanks for bringing up some great memories, Andy.

    There isn't much more that says "definitive Canadian winter" than this.
