Where the spirit leads the feet will follow.
Down distant paths for unmapped miles.
Heads forget but hearts remember:
The art of living knows no bounds.

Letowski Is Hurt (old)

..."There's a big hit by Kyle Mclaren on Trevor Latowski and Letowski's hurt". OoooHHHH!!

This is a YouTube clip for back in 2010 (I think) by YouTuber thereaperjkidd.

I think one of the most brutal hip checks by the great Kyle Mclaren that I have seen...and he had A LOT! 😆

This video is probably somewhere else on this site, but it never hurts to post it again. I'm unsure of what Kyle Mclaren is up to these days. A quick web search didn't turn up anything recent. He was one of our favorite Sharks player back in that era. Thanks for all the great memories Kyle!

We Used to Do This Thaaang...

UPDATE: Planning for Dirtbag Desert Holiday#6 2024 is underway!

...in the California desert. For New Years celebrations, a small group of us would get together and spend three or four days climbing desert peaks. It was called Dirtbag Desert Holiday. We did it for five years in a row, but people started to drift away and it was hard to find other people crazy enough to freeze their asses off while they climbed peaks in the winter.

The best parts were sitting around a blazing desert campfire in the evening and reliving the days climb...
