Not Thanksgiving

The Minnesota Gopher Women's Hockey team defeated Minnesota State Mankato this afternoon by a score of 6-3. Freshman Monique Lamoureux had 2 goals and 4 assists. The Gophers got 6 and MLam had a hand in each and every one, scoring 2 and assisting on all of the others.

I was just doing some surfing and passed by the telecast of the Gopher men's hockey team. The long time play by play guy, Frank Mazzocco, gave the women's score and MLam's point total. Long time analyst and former Gopher head coach (and long ago Gopher player and Minnesota high school standout at South Saint Paul) Doug Woog, aka the Wooger, whoops, "Whooooa! 6 points! Only a freshman!"

This picture was taken on November 22 last year. November 22 last year was Thanksgiving. The post from last year is titled 8am, 22 degrees.This morning at 8am we had a dusting of snow and it was about 22 degrees. Looking out our back door it looked pretty much like last year.

It wasn't Thanksgiving today but everything else was deja vu all over again.

Interesting. We have a ton more snow. Inevitable.
