Olympics

We won another gold today! Woohoo!

Right now we're switching channels between men's hockey and men's figure skating. The women's hockey team is doing great, but the men are playing terribly tonight

It's still 0-0 and we're playing Norway!

I feel bad for Vancouver because this is the warmest winter they've had in over 100 years! The media up here is reporting how upset a lot of other countries are about coming to a winter olympics in a city with no snow... they're having to bring in loads of snow from other areas.

I'm glad you enjoyed the opening ceremony Gayle

I like how they showed things from all parts of Canada. The golden fields of wheat were my area

Phew! 6-0 halfway through the third period. THAT's more like it!

Scratch that! 7-0!

You know, that's just the way it goes! Some people are having the coldest winter in 100 years and Vancouver just the opposite. It all looks just great though!!!

I knew that Lindsay! I was thinking about you when I saw the wheat! I'm from flat wheat country too, in Oklahoma!

It was in women's snowboard cross. Maelle Ricker had a huge lead for the whole run. So we now have Canada's first man AND first woman to win gold at home! What a great accomplishment for both of them!

That's just great! You are right, it is a great accomplishment for both Canadian women and men! How did the hockey game turn out?

8-0 final score

Oh WOW Lindsay!!! That was a rout! I'll root for Canada - unless they play the U.S., of course!

GO CANADA!!!

Keep me posted on metals and events!

Lol thanks Gayle! The women's team beat Slovakia 18-0, and beat Switzerland 10-1. On the USA side, the women beat China 12-1, and beat Russia 13-0. The men beat Switzerland 3-1. I bet on the women's side it will be a Canada-USA final

For the men, I think it's a toss-up between USA, Canada, and Russia.
