Thank You Canada!

  Thank you Canada for the most awesome winter games I’ve ever seen. All the people involved certainly did a top-notch job, and all the athletes performed superbly. The camera work was stunning, and all the images memorable. I was even starting to think that if I came up, Michael J. Fox would make me breakfast! And then to see one of my idols, Neil Young, play “Long May You Run”…well, that was just icing on the cake!
  Probably the most memorable moment though was the hockey game between U.S. and Canada. It was beyond any doubt the best hockey game I’ve ever seen in my life. Both sides played very well, and it was obvious to me at least that they both deserved to be there competing for the gold. I really felt Ryan Miller’s disappointment when that puck sailed by him, but I could tell by his smile at the closing ceremony that he really ‘got it’, and was fully in the spirit of the games. All of them are surely blessed with wonderful memories.
