Warriors Downed.

Last night, I drove down to Eau Claire to watch Rice Lake take on the Old Abes. (Eau Claire is one of those "big" Wisconsin cities with more than one high school, like Madison. Eau Claire Memorial is strong in their hockey program.)

The Warriors were shut out, but kept it scoreless in the first period. But you get scored on, and then deflated, penalized for your play, they score and then pick up another one quickly, and in a game like hockey, things can quickly sour...

Rice Lake would have to get past the Old Abes -- at home -- to make it to the state playoffs in Madison this year.

But even before that, they have to beat Chippewa Falls...

In other news, our short burst of springtime is over and the typical winter temps have returned. 11 degrees coming into work today, and the sun is buffered by a layer of grey white.

OK, here's one for Friday then:

Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine.
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day...

Make it a great weekend, out there!
