I'm looking to make a bench for the back door. With Heather's back she has to bring a chair over to put on her shoes, so I figured a bench would look good. Found a couple that I liked, one called a Basque Bench and the other an Ethan Bench. The Ethan looks nicer, but the Basque is a bit easier to make. Probably I'll make the Basque for now.

Most of the snow is now melted around the house, there's still a bit in the front yard (which faces north). I want to plant a tree (a red maple) in the backyard this season. We were trying to remember when the city planted our pear tree in the front yard; I didn't blog about it, but we think it was around the start of May.

Heather and I went for a short walk down Queen St today. There was a lot of street traffic, which bodes well for the businesses. Looks like a ice cream place may be coming in where the cajun place used to be.

We lost at hockey on Thursday 3-2, but it was a good game. We're starting to string passes together (historically a problem for the Rockets). I got a nice assist on Laurie's goal, passing it out from the corner to Laurie in front of the net who one-timed in. It was a relatively early game (8:15) so we went up for pizza and wings after.

Anyways I have to get ready for my Ultimate game.
