Dobson's Closed, Eagle's Closed = Rough Life for a Hockey Player in Vail

Dobson is closed for a month for maintenance, and Eagle Ice Rink is closed for the summer...great! Sucks to be a hockey player in Vail right now. I drove over to Breckenridge today for a stick and puck, which was good, but that drive might get old fast. Anyway, I guess you gotta do what you gotta do, and I'm gonna make it work for the next few weeks before these upcoming tryouts in May. It's exciting! It seems like it was just yesterday I was preparing for the summer tryout camps last May. But I think this time around, I am much more confident and much more prepared for what's coming. I know what I have to do to succeed at these camps, and I know what I have to do to prepare myself for these camps, but unfortunately, I will have to do the on-ice stuff over in Breck for the next few days. And there's more bad news: I think Breck's rink is closing pretty soon for maintenance as well, so I will have to figure something out when that happens.
