Too bad you can't do this in Pasadena

Let the Pond Hockey Games Begin

I found this lovely photo at Flickr -- on a page devoted to pond hockey. It was taken by Davo McDougall somewhere in Ontario, Canada.

Between this photo and the news yesterday that it was snowing in Mammoth, I sometimes wonder what the hell I'm doing living in So Cal. I love it here -- but how awesome would it be to play hockey with some friends outside on a Sunday morning?
