During a business trip, Doug took in a Montreal Canadian's game.

Post game press conference was difficult after losing 8-4 to the Avalanche


Did not figure out a way to get in a pre-game skate

St Agnes Auction Night

The theme was the 70's. Here is are pre-event pictures.


Highlights of the night:

  • Talking to us was good luck. The tuition winners were at our table and we had a long discussion about the Best Of auction prize with the eventual winners!
  • Got to see Peter - donut guy at St. Luke
  • Awesome PPT that nobody saw during dinner

Whitetail - end of season

This year was a terrible year for snow (and cold) in PA. The result was we got our last 'skiing' in this weekend. We had several folks join us for the last hurrah. The boys are pictured below. Sadona escaped the camera.

Caps Game - Doug and RJ

Granddad got us hockey tickets for Christmas, so we saw the Capitals play the Mighty Ducks. The Ducks were not mighty but the capitals lacked luck, so we saw a 4-2 loss.

Game highlights are here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDFPzxr3-ac. The highlights don't do the game justice in terms of how the Caps dominated but couldn't score.

After the Caps score a goal (0:25, 3:09), the camera pans up and shows us briefly.


Despite the loss, we had a great time with the exception of entering the stadium. Here was the process:
  1. We went to the main gate. Because RJ had his EpiPen, we were informed to go to a different entrance.
  2. At the other entrance, they told us we were in the wrong place and were sent somewhere else.
  3. When we got to the medical entrance, our tickets (thanks to the super-lame Ticketmaster app) were flagged as a potential screen shot so they sent us back to where we started. (the super-lame Ticketmaster app stopped the people behind us as well ... it let 2 of their tickets in but stopped the 2 others)
  4. At original entrance they tried to make use repeat the process.
  5. With the help of a supervisor, we got the EpiPen bag through the main entrance and got some guy in the 'problem ticket' booth to send me a text message with some barcodes that would scan.
