Sweet victory

Just got back from the Final Five tourney in St Paul. It was a great time. The Sioux won their semifinal with Wisconsin, 4-3, after being behind 2-0 at one point in the first period. They ended up tying it up by the end of the first with 2 goals in the final 2min of the period. So they moved on to the championship game against SCSU. They got behind 1-0 in the first after a PP goal by St Cloud, but they responded with a goal 10 seconds later, and then scored again 15 seconds later to take the 2-1 lead. They ended up winning 5-3. Good times. We had awesome seats; first row, right on the glass in the corner behind one of the nets.

Next up is the NCAA tourney. The Sioux are hosting a regional this year in GF. Wish I could make it home for that, but it would have been hard to get days off for the Final Five, Regional, and the Frozen Four (in Milwaukee this year) all within a month. Oh well. The Sioux take on Michigan on Fri. Go Sioux.

Heather and Vontoux are still in Port Huron. They return home on Tues. So, it's just me and stupid Birdie until then.

The weather is starting to warm up again. All of the snow that we got last week is already gone. I have a long ride planned for Sat morning with a guy from work in the hills to the southwest of Madison (the same roads from the Horribly Hilly 100s ride). Looking forward to testing the legs on some inclined pavement. :)
