1 month until Hawaii

Holy Moly i am so pumped and excited about this trip .... unfortunately this past week has been very trying for this event to unfold with all the expectations . Last weekend after our hockey game Toby was hit by a car outside our sponsor bar . Thankfully he was not injured too badly but none the less it sucks !

After our game we usually go for a quick pint at the Midpoint , last weekend it was just Toby , Chip myself and of course Eric whom owns the establishment . We had a quick 2 or 3 pints and all headed home as the weather was getting bad . Walked over to my car with Toby and we had a smoke and chatted about our trip ( of course we are both stoked ) . Toby said bye , he was going to a house party close to the bar and said he was going to walk. I left 2 or 3 minutes after him from the parking lot , drove in same direction that he left .... when i got to the main street i looked around for Toby and did not see him . It was snowing and freezing rain mix and was low visibility so i thought either i can't see him or he moved fast .

The next day i get a call from Toby to find out that someone ran him over !!!!! Yeah apparently he was on the ground when i drove by and didn't see him ..... how crazy is that ? I am not sure if i should really go into the story which Toby told me .... if he is hurt and has to go to court i don't want to cause any problems by writing about it as i can't quote anything . I am trying to get a hold of him today to make sure he is okay , it will really suck if he comes to Hawaii and does not play :(

Also this past week there was a huge earthquake that triggered a tsunami which hit Hawaii ... at the moment i am not sure if there was much damage if any on the island . Here's to hoping that everyone is safe and that the arena is not damaged .

Sorry to write a blog today that is kinda sad , but this week the world shook and today i hope that all my friends on the Tokyo Canadians are ok .... i am counting the days down to Hawaii now that i am at 1 month , and at the same time i am keeping my fingers crossed . Peace.
