Or something along those lines. As a displaced Phillies fan it is a bit lonely here. Surrounded by Yankees and Mets and Red Sox fans. The Mets fans are all in hiding at least after three dismal years, two late collapses and a really awful season this year. The Sawx fans are pretty quiet as they watch the Yankees enter the fall classic. It really is just the uproar from the Yankees fans....."10,000 losses"...."26 championships"...."new stadium (complete with faulty and cracked concrete)"....etc.
So, I will hold my vigil alone as even Mrs. JH is a Yankee fan (kinda). At least her boss is a Phillies fan. Maybe I should go spend a week in South Jersey, it would be closer to work.
At least when the dust clears and the Phightins are the first NL team to repeat in 20+ years all the shouting will die down. And I will be sending off my winning bet to Las Vegas again this year.
GO PHILS, WIN IT FOR HARRY!

Been awhile
Just realized it has been over a month since the last entry. Time flies. Went on vacation to LBI and there were some entries over there. Ice is all installed and even touched up the rocks to add some curl. Leagues start this week and next. A bunch of open houses were held with good attendance and local TV even showed up to do some filming.
Work has been very busy with lots of trips to NJ for meetings and such.
The Phightin's won the division and are in the NLDS battling the cold and snow. Big game tonight. How good would a Phils/Yanks WS be? Who knows, Mrs. JH could even score some tickets.
Doesn't look like we are gonna make it to Edmonton for the Oly trials. Just too much happening. Too bad as Team Jones is looking pretty good right now. A win in Oslo and playing in the final this weekend.
Curling starts for us next week. Think both of us will be taking it a bit easy this year. Mrs. back still not a 100%. I did something to the good knee and it bothers me just to walk sometimes. Guess that is part of old age. Heading to the Founder's in Plainfield with a 6 person team for those reasons.
GO PHILLIES!
