Hat Trick Returns

I've been offline for a little while and haven't even commented on the 2010 midterm elections...although I do have a post drafted. Unfortunately a combination of family illness and computer woes have "infected" (ha ha ha...pun intended) the Hat Trick household over the past few weeks. The computers are fixed (yes, both had issues) and we are back on track to some regular posting soon.

On a happy note during the hiatus...did anyone notice the Detroit Red Wings have compiled a 12 - 3 -2 record since the beginning of the 2010-11 season? Let's Go Red Wings!!!

Red Wings 2010-2011 Is Almost Here!

In a little less than an hour the Red Wings begin another "March for the Cup" with a home opener at the JLA (Joe Louis Arena for new readers) against the Anaheim Ducks. Needless to say the Hat Trick is happy to have Red Wing hockey back, even if I'm going to miss the game in my new home in South Jersey.

Some initial previews have the Wings winning the Central Division and having a much better year compared with the 2009-2010 season. We'll see where the pucks fall (ha ha) but I feel more confident at the start of this season then I did last year.

Let's Go Red Wings!

Greetings From Ocean City

I'm writing this post from the beaches of Ocean City, Maryland where the Hat Tricks are taking a family vacation. It's been a busy summer with out move from Washington, DC to Southern New Jersey so it's been nice to relax (somewhat) and not worry about movers, temporary housing, mortgages and everything else that goes with a move of this magnitude. Luckily Hurricane Earl didn't ruin our trip although he did provide some impressive waves as he passed by the Maryland coast.

Not sure how much posting I will be able to do this week but will try to get a few in here and there. I hope all my readers had a great Labor Day Weekend and are now gearing up for the fall...and the arrival of a big midterm election and the 2010-11 NHL season!
