Old people have issues with modern technology.
![]() Cool picture. Hope to one day have some similar ones. Micah did the blackstars tryout yesterday. Its the furthest club from us, but he likes the coach and the club has a development option they will allow him to do this year where he can practice with the club, but not have to play or travel with them, which is what we want. They said he may be asked to play in some crossice stuff for them but we can decline. He will be playing inhouse with all his buddies also. Tomorrow I have to go down to LA/ Anahiem area for a training till thursday. Dads going to be crackhead in a crackhouse. Hockeymonkey, hockeygiant, hockeytron, hockeydogs, and some other shops. Trying to figure out how to stop at icewarehouse in san luis obispo, but its halfway between sj and la and when were traveling and returning they will be closed. There are some other shops also, but want to hit the big ones. |

I'd LOVE to run the gauntlet of those stores one day..... Just made a small purchase at the Monkey....closeout protective stuff with the SUMMER20, it was too good to pass up. Their handling/shipping charges suck balls, but at least this time they shipped same day, which turns into 2 day shipping for me.
Still have never been as impressed with an online hockey retailer, as I am with icewarehouse...those guys/girls kick tail! If you are able to work out getting there, I am interested to hear what you think. Safe travels! |

Micah was offered a spot on the Stars mite cross ice tournament team.
The Stars are doing something unique this year. They have a full blown travel team which will play full ice tournaments and games around the state and also a mite cross ice jamboree tournament team which will only do cross ice stuff in the bayarea. 3-4 jamborees during the season. Both teams will practice together. This is exactly what we were hoping for. He will get to participate in high level practices without the travel stuff. He really likes the coach who is super friendly and positive. He is also going to do inhouse with his buddies. He is going through withdrawals right now. Hes only been skating once a week and playing roller one day. He got used to skating a lot more and misses skating more. |

Video of Micahs shootout goal from Golden State Hockey Camp allstar game. Goali was 7 or 8. He might be the goalie for his cross ice team. Sorry about the audio. Its from the game video. The shot actually took three tries to complete. The first time either the goalie came out before the whistle or there were kids on the ice still. Second attempt Micah left before the whistle so they blew it dead.

I love hockey. When I was a kid on the farm it was all we had to do in winter. My old man was a fearsome hockey dad... I still remember my 1st goal. Unfortunately it was against my team

Luls Micah has two on the way. That is probably the best youth stick made. Kevlar wrapped really holds up to abuse. Hoping will last him the season. At $40 a pop thats a deal and a half. They are selling for 89.00 plus tax locally.
Grabbed a pair of those Youth Easton gloves also. Broke down to $12.80 for a pair. And grabbed a pair of the youth warrior bentley shinguards. $16.00. There selection isnt great, but given he he really needs a set of cheap gear for roller this sale was awesome. Pretty good quality stuff for very cheap. |

First day of travel practice. Hes the youngest but by far not the worst. Yeah!
So far hes doing pretty well with the drills. All the club skating this summer definitely helped |

That is a pet peeve of mine.... IMO, with today’s tech, anything ordered before noon, should ship that day. Maybe those are unrealistic expectations, but I have them and if a place cannot live up to them, they may not get my business.
