Should have brought a broom to the game.

Surfside RV Resort, Parksville BC (2 stars)

No, not for the fans to help clean the ice after yet another Zamboni breakdown. The Oceanside Generals faced the best team in BC Junior B hockey, the Campbell River Storm who had only lost two games all year. Well, as they say, the play-offs are a different animal. The Generals beat them four straight. What a wonderful feeling in the Howie Meeker Arena at the end of that game.

Lez grins: Yes, the Generals team had a broom and the post game on ice play was sweeping. They played well, we all cheered hard! We made it to the game a scant 15 minutes before start time - and did get seating space on the benches close to the folk we chat with a lot at the games. There were 909 people at the game!

We spent the day at Shawnigan Lake, at the Royal Canadian Malahat Legion Br. 134, at a quilting bee day. Yes, 'we' as my man came along too! The YSAG - Young Seniors Action Group had asked me to come out and share my "quilting story". Lee held up quilts while I talked about them, and I shared a power point presentation that shares how and where I got started quilting and what event started the Canadian Quilts of Valour. We had cake and tea and we talked and talked.

End of day I was exhausted.
