Really, the cancellations today and tomorrow aren't for snow. Portland can function through an inch or two of snow. It's the ice on the roads that makes people nervous. And we've got even more snow coming in tonight on top of the ice. I hate driving on this stuff, and I"m always glad when they cancel things.

So I guess you'll never visit Canada in the wintertime?

Tournament this weekend where we had teams that had to travel some distance to get home leave early and the games were cancelled. Why you ask, well as it turns out the first blizzard of the year was occurring and the temperatures dropped to -45 celcius. I would not want to break down and get caught in those conditions.

For those of you who don't speak metric -45C = -49F

I love football. I don't officiate it, but it is my favorite sport. However, it wasn't this past Friday. A local school here made it to the state finals and they played on Friday. I had that schools varsity games, also playing on Friday. The coach canceled the games (girls and boys varsity) so the players could go see the football game! On a positive note, they won!

We would have to cancel the basketball game because several of our basketball players play football.

On the other hand, our football team was 1-10 so there was NO chance of that happening!

I've lost three games over last four days due to ICE STORM in the northeast.
