Interesting day I had today  

First went to a ringette game on one side of the city. Then off off to a flag football game in the central area of the city. Then to a youngins, U14 hockey game in the south side of the city. Finally a Junior B hockey game outside of the city in a neighbouring city. Two games my team won, two they tied. Now you get to guess which were the ties and the wins . Oh, I did come home after. 

I was thinking on my drive home that I need to get traveling. I realized that other than the US of A and Canada, I've not gone anywhere. Now I do know some people that have never left their own province, state or country. So I want to know how many different countries have you been to? I imagine we are going to have someone that worked in a diplomatic service and will list like 100 countries, but wouldn't it be cool to sit down with them and get a little bit of information on all of them  

Since I was born in West Germany, yes I'm that old , I'd like to go visit Germany. Maybe the UK, I guess I have some distant relatives there that my sisters are in contact with from my Dad's side of the family. In Scotland I think. Don't hate me if you are from England, Wales, or Northern Ireland  I'll throw haggis at you  

There is lots of other places I'd like to go to, but I'm more curious about you. So after telling me where you have been, tell me one place only that you want to go. BTW, I know I'm going to H E double hockey sticks, so I don't need to know if I will meet you there. 

So did anything new and exciting happen this week at the GA News Blogs? I don't know what you all checked out, but we had a visit from a long time ago blog  Just kidding  We did have a full week so make sure you check out all these great ones.
