Hockey Travels

Robyn and I are on the second leg of our hockey weekend. Yesterday was Swift Current. This morning we headed southeast to Glentworth Sk to face the Wood River Whirling Dervishes (at least I thin that’s there name.)

It was a great drive. We saw a coyote and several deer, including a large buck. The remoteness was fascinating and overwhelming. I’d have a lot of trouble adjusting to living 100km+ from the nearest grocery store.

I stopped for some pics halfway along the 170km drive from Swift Current.

Learning math while ignoring your math teacher. Love it. :)

Mathematically correct:

Vi Hart puts math in order by ignoring his teacher and doodling. From Cory Doctorow:

Vi Hart’s “Mathematical Doodling” is a series of hilarious and informative narrated videos explaining doodle-games that you can play to explain mathematical concepts in a way that’s much more intuitive than the traditional math-class methodologies. [Here] is binary trees, but be sure and click through to “Snakes + Graphs” — a wonderful, captivating potted graph theory explanation.

Candygrams might consider some of the October themes for next year.
