Slowly, but consistently the winter delivered snow. It didn’t seem possible: but yet, the winter of 2025 conjured reminders of long ago. Like 1968 some said, or 71. 71, Sam remembered well. He had managed to miss most of that season, the result of a Fall soccer injury, but salvaged that long, cold winter playing hockey on the frozen brook, wearing his Derek Sanderson homemade sweatshirt/jersey. Now, the opportunity to experience a deep, epic winter had arrived again. Sam had started training consistently five years ago, not to Everest or marathon levels, but enough to stay in the game, to be available for what adventures might come. A case of pushing against the clock, as opposed to letting it run out.
