I'm sure this seems like a strange vacation block, but to those of us who have traveled around Canada and the entire U.S. for the last 13 years, this was every vacation! Every holiday and tourney weekend was spent in the coldest of ice rinks year round. My youngest son played tier hockey and these were our vacations. We did see some drop dead gorgeous parts of Canada and Alaska, but in the winter you'd just rather be inside the rink. So I decided to ink the back of a giant ice hockey player and thread paint over the ink. This truly was our life and I wouldn't change any of it. Now that this kid is graduated we hope to have a more normal type of vacation. Although now there are the grandkids...
