Hockey Again

My blog header photo is one that I took last winter and a favourite of ours.

This dad and his son would show most days at the frozen marsh behind our house, just after 3 p.m. when school was out. The dad would clean the snow off the ice, set up the goalie net and they would play hockey.

Well, this week we noticed that they are back again. It is nice to watch them spending time together outside, enjoying our great Canadian sport - hockey.

Hockey Night in Bathurst

Friday, 11 September was the opening game for the 2009 season for the Acadie Bathurst hockey team, The Titan - our local team.

It was such a nice evening to enjoy the opening night events. There were prizes being given away and hot dogs for sale. My big Titan fan was right there in the line-up for his snack. The funds raised went toward the Education Fund for the Titan.


Our friends, John and Pat, are avid Titan fans and also hot dog fans, like Paul. Here they all are, busy at the condiment stand. Nothing better than Heinz ketchup.


Paul's family are also big Titan hockey fans. His sister, Jeannine, and nephew, Jamie, were out to support their team.

Everyone was having a great time outside socializing, snacking and listening to the music, but unfortunately our night of hockey inside was not so happy. Our team lost to St. John after an overtime and shoot-out by a score of 4/3.

It's only the first game of the season, so Go Titan Go!
