Hockey!

When we lived in Spokane (in another life), we had season tickets to Spokane Chiefs hockey games and loved spending time at the Arena watching those young men skate. As we were watching the hockey games at the Olympics today, I realized how much I missed that. Russia and Slovakia played this afternoon and tonight we watched the USA beat Canada 5-3 in a hard fought game. (Finally discovered that MSNBC and CNBC were also showing different parts of the Olympics -- so didn't miss tonight's game while NBC was showing Ice Dancing.)

After arriving home last night after midnight from the airport, we weren't very early risers this morning and have spent a fairly quiet day today. We did walk across the street and took a look at the Park Models they have on display here at the RV Park. These buildings have to be kept to a certain size to still qualify as "mobile homes" and fit into the sites at an RV park. They usually have a kitchen, bathroom, combo living/dining room and a bedroom. Most people add on what is called an Arizona room that covers the back portion of what would be the driveway portion of the lot. It seems like many of the people we have chatted with who live in them often still have houses in the "north" and come down to live in their park models during the winter. Some of the parks we've been in have more of these than they have actual RVs.
