Yes. Sometimes a loss can be galvanizing. Let’s hope for that.
I’m a little concerned there’s something going on in the background to rupture relationships, confidence that hasn’t made it to public domain. They are an international mix, perhaps politics has caused conflict? Hoping I’m wrong.

Ottawa’s play was lacklustre. So many giveaways, missed passes, fans on the puck. I hope they come out in better form for the next one. And I thought the normally unflappable Phillips looked shaky.
They played a dump and chase game but didn’t win the battles, the foot races, or the plays.

The ash like hues from the frost dust the trees and auburn grasses around the river way.  There is hope for brightening in the cloud filled sky as the day awakens. All is very calm and still.

I think nature journaled out its peaceful intent for the weekend 📷🕊️ …

Cloudy with moody blues and grays at sunrise. Soon it will be time to head home. I always think I’ll accomplish so much more than I actually do. But progress is progress, right?! #eastcoastkin #photography #sunrise #writerslife

#pinkmon #summer I’m months away from coffee in the rose garden as it remains buried in snow.
But I can ski and I can remember.

The hockey game was hard fought and competitive right until the end. I’m not sure why you feel a need to demean Canadian teams. This is sport. People play hard and some get gold or silver, and some don’t make the playoffs but might make a personal best and they are all elite, remarkable athletes

Shadows can loom large in the news cycle. Loom for the warm glow of love wherever it can be found even when you feel wooden. #orange #eastcoastkin #light #shadow #love #photography

Cheering Canada, but also secretly czeckia, because I’ve got a crush on Carla Macleod. #hockey #olympics #heatedrivalry #eastcostkin

One of my favourite photos of all time from early parenting days, those long, long days entertaining a toddler, when a great full-body hug was the only and best reward. #parenting #hugs #toddler #family

Something that isn’t mentioned about #Davos this week is that the whole event, as in previous years was mitigated throughout with Hepa air purifiers. Attendees were also encouraged to covid test before attending. #Covidisnotover

That said, the Charge have work to do. Need more tape-to-tape passes, fewer turnovers in neutral zone, and more disciplined play from D

The pinecone is a fascinating example of architecture in nature. I’ve used some as Christmas decorations for over a decade, spray painted silver and gold, and they still close up if dropped in water, and open once dry.

These two are not dynamic hockey commentators. She’s better, he’s like watching beige paint dry. #hockey #commentators #playbyplay

Cava is a good trade. But as a charge fan I liked mchanon’s play.
That said Charge D needs some discipline. Maybe the trade will help.

I was taking photos of beautiful snow covered trees. This is a photo I didn’t intend to take. How often do intentions lead places we didn’t intend? How often do we take for granted infrastructure which allows us a walk around campus on a coffee break?
