Hockey Hysteria

On Saturday, Bob dusted off his hockey equipment, laced up his skates, and took to the ice in the first annual Lake in the Hills Pond Hockey tournament. I'll go ahead and state the obvious, it was an outdoor hockey tournament on a local pond. Bob's team of five was his brother, Brian, and friends, Harry, Dave, and Rich. Rich flew in from NYC to join Team X-Large, while the rest of the crew live in the Chicagoland area. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take the kids on the blustery winter day to see their dad, but Reed has had fun playing with Bob's equipment at home.

Here's a link to an article in a local newpaper about the event. Bob was even quoted. I can't figure out how to download the picture of Bob playing, but if you go to the Photo tab on the link you should be able to see it if you click through the pictures. (There's only two.)
