Just back home from a bit of a road trip for my kids hockey game. And in about 12 hours we’ll be back on the road for another one.
I’ve been using Mastodon for awhile, but never gave a proper #introduction. So here we go.
I’m a father of two boys. A former IT geek who ended up working in breweries, then becoming an actual brewer at a small pub. It eventually closed, and I transitioned to full time #stayathomedad . I play #hockey, I dabble with #Writing, I love #SciFi and #Fantasy, I #homebrewbeer, I’m a #youthhockey dad, and I’m trying to get back in to #ttrpg. I currently have 3 #Cats. That’s a snapshot of my life.
Single digit weather (in Fahrenheit, it’s close to -14C) out there today. What would I like to do? Curl up under my blanket, watch some Premiere League football, and read a good book with a cat in my lap.
What am I going to be doing? Taking my 11 year old to his hockey game so I can stand around an ice rink all morning. Oh, yeah, then tonight I have a hockey game.
I joined the board of the local youth hockey organization and I’m now the treasurer. Does anyone recommend any books or online courses in non-profit financial management?
My library only had books on small business (which is also relevant) but I’m sure there is something good out there.
Back at the World's Longest Hockey Game Juniors east of Edmonton! This shift is 11:30pm to 3am. We've had a brief pause to sing happy birthday just after midnight, a goalie breakaway, zambonis doing donuts. It's officially silly season.
Sitting in the stands for four hours at a time, just a few degrees below freezing gets COLD. Parents decked out in heated vests, blankets, hand warmers.
Shift 3 of the World's Longest Hockey Game Juniors! The problem today is the sun more than anything else. Corners are a bit soft!

Bright, sunny gorgeous water view in Southie this am, but very cold inside the rink - almost like outdoors. #YouthHockey #HockeyRink #Southie
Applications are now open for 2024!
I'm not a #hockey person, but I've been running the back end for a youth ice hockey showcase for the past 15 years.
If you've got any talented hockey boys or girls born between 2006-2011 living on the east coast, maybe they'd like to apply.
Lots of preparatory and professional scouts in attendance when the events happen in June.

I've been sharing my #photography lately. These are #photos of #IceHockey and were taken in #Massachusetts between April 2004 and March 2005.
There's a link to my #PhotoBook as well as my Instagram in my bio.
#boosts are appreciated.
