Neighbour John has six kids, three girls and three boys. The three girls came along before the three boys so in some instances this has created what you might call an inconvenient divide.
The three girls are teenagers and the three boys are not, so when it comes to something like March break, what do you do?
Two of the girls are in college so they can't go anywhere this week, and the other one is in grade 12 so she really isn't interested in doing anything with the boys.
So Neighbour John came up with a solution. To keep his boys occupied this week he's taking them on a hockey journey. What I call the Incredible journey.
Tell me what three healthy, hockey lovin' boys wouldn't love this trip.
This morning they left for Montreal where tonight they will see the Habs play the Islanders.
Tomorrow morning they'll get up and drive nine hours to New Jersey where tomorrow night they'll see the Devils take on Sydney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins.
On Thursday morning they'll get up and drive three hours to Philadelphia where that night they'll see the Flyers take on the Atlanta Thrashers.
On Friday morning, they'll get up and go to the Philadelphia Museum of Art where they will run up the stairs because they love all the "Rocky" movies, and then they'll drive home. How's that for a good dad.
And just in case you're wondering about the girls, in late April he's taking them to Florida so they can lie on a beach for a few days.
John will drink beer.
