There have been birds around here in the foothills in places they just shouldn’t be/have never seen them in February.

What a game. As an Avs guy, it's SO hard to root against my 3 favorite players, but the whole game was electric.
Wow - what a comeback by Finland. down 2-0 with 7 mins to go, they tie it and our guy Lehkonen wins it in OT.

Both "second" goals :)
Lt. Nelson having a day - hope his Grandpa and Uncle are watching.
My initial list of sports where “the north woods would dominate, drinking would be encouraged or even provide an edge, and involve light physical activity” from your first post was :

USA against SWE in an hour for the Gold!
