Photo of the Day: digging out the hockey sticks
Posted on 13 January 2010.
Q. How can you tell a Yankee in the South?
A. He can pull out a hockey stick when the pond freezes over.
These three boys, all fifth-graders at Davidson Elementary, proved their ties to the North over the weekend when they took one look at the frozen McConnell pond and ran to find their hockey sticks. The three, joined by others, spent as much of Sunday’s daylight hours as they could stand on the ice. The shallow side of the pond has been frozen solid for several days.
