Great Trip

Well we had a great trip to Ottawa , Montreal, Laval, and Blainville for the Canadian Horseshoe Championships of 2011.

 The Tournament was held in Blainville Que. at the Equestrian park.   241 entries for this year tournament.  Oldest player was 89 yrs old and youngest was 7.  


I was in the Men's B event and held my own after 2 days and was in 3rd place with a chance to make a move on the last day. But I played poorly and fell to 4 th.   But the overall tournament was great.






We used the tournament as a holiday and saw the sights in Montreal, Laval , and Ottawa.  Here in order is Mount Royal in Montreal at dusk, followed by Parliament hill in Ottawa with the Changing of the Guard. And the last picture is the Museum of Civilisation In Gatenau Que.

Next year I will have to do better.  2012 tournament will be held in Saskatoon.

Odd shot Aug 1

Well its been a week since I last posted.  been busy. But here is my odd shot.   I saw these guys last week as I was driving down the street.  They were walking along to go play hockey at the local school.   Carrying a homemade Stanley Cup, I thought this is a perfect shot for my odd shot.   I mean how many times do you see a Stanley Cup being walked down the street. 


I asked them if i could take their pic for my blog and they said sure.   We are the Langhole league they called out.  Lang for Langford I guess. and hole as Langford used to be a bad place to be but I guess with the younger crowd it still is .  I dont know.  I like it here.
enjoy
