About those weather wimps

Hmmm, did I say weather wimps? After half a week without minor hockey in London due to a snowstorm, we're scheduled to be back on the ice tonight. But the snow's coming down again and the game is more than an hour away in Stratford. Whiteouts along Highway 7 are possible.
Suddenly, I'm hoping the game will be rescheduled. Trimming our newly purchased Christmas tree seems a better option.

Best rink on the circuit

Playing minor hockey in Southwestern Ontario takes us to many grand arenas, none of which I hope ever fall to the wrecker's ball. Sarnia Arena and Brantford Arena are wonderful old time hockey palaces, but my favourite is Allman Arena in Stratford. We were there Sunday and played the local kids to a 3-3 draw.
Just as enjoyable as the game were the french fries from the service club food booth in the lobby. Not to be missed!
West London and Stratford midgets play at historic Allman Arena.
