Say it isn't Snow


A nice clear driveway--- after two and a half hours of shoveling!


Cars are under there somewhere!



Looking out from the garage


A Sea of White


Looking out towards our townhouse


Having a great time in the snow


Sun setting over Greenway Farms


Winter of 2010

Our first winter back on the east coast will certainly last for some time in our memories. Record setting snowfalls have convinced many of our family and friends alike that we brought this "stuff" with us from North Dakota. The winter here is still mild by Montana and North Dakota standards, but a few of the storms have been pretty intense. We have received about 40-45 inches of snow since last Saturday, and the kids have been out of school for the whole week. All of us are feeling a little cabin fever right now and looking forward to doing something other than shoveling snow.

I am heading to a Glazier clinic in Baltimore this weekend with the coaching staff from Aberdeen High School. It will be nice to get out of the house for a bit and catch up on some new info. in the game of football. The winter clinics were a big part of my coaching routine in North Dakota. I used to get to the Glazier clinic in Minneapolis every year and sometimes made it out to other clinics in Chicago or even California. It is a great opportunity for networking with other coaches and staying current on new techniques that are catching momentum, especially in the college and pro game.

My upcoming coaching plans are to head over to Finland for a short spring camp next month. I will be flying out in a few weeks to Sweden and then taking a Viking Line Ferry over to Helsinki. It will be a good opportunity to see all the guys and meet our new players that have been signed for the 2010 season. Right now, the plan is to go back over to Finland in early May and stay through the end of the season, which could last into early September.

Lights out.
