Closing Out 2025
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s cold and gray out here in NYC. Feels like 12F outside. It’s sick, but this is the price we pay for all seasons. Some slushy mountains of snow remain. The truth is, there are days when I can close my eyes and see the sunset at Cedar Key, salty air hittingContinue reading “Closing Out 2025”

Paul Maurice

Goalie
By: Gabriela Yareliz Goalies— their job is to go against any human instinct to duck or avoid a hit— their job is to block and take the hits. It goes against all human instincts to avoid pain or direct impact. Sometimes in life, to get the job done right, we have to go against allContinue reading “Goalie”
Team USA
By: Gabriela Yareliz We have been watching hockey’s Four Nations Face Off (rooting for team USA, of course). 🇺🇸 Last night, USA played Canada. Canada booed our national anthem, and shortly after that moment, USA beat up the Canada team both literally (gloves off) and also, we annihilated them in the game. We are currentlyContinue reading “Team USA”
