| December 6 - Finnish Independence Day |
 |
| Pond hockey at its finest. Who needs snow when you have good ice. |
 |
| Yours truly about to deke out three defenders...(Hey, I can tell it any way I like.) |
 |
| The island added strategic options... |
 |
| Whichever team got three goals first was the winner. Afterward we mixed the sticks to choose new sides and did it all over again. |
 |
| Jake putting a move on Johnny.... |
 |
| The Koivisto brothers - Carl and Mark - chased each other while the rest of us watched. (We couldn't keep up.) |
 |
| Yours truly about to drop the puck using the old behind-of-the-back-at-the-goal toss. Nothing against it in the rule book. For matter there's nothing against anything in the rule book, for the rule book does not exist. |
 |
| Johnny stealing the puck... |
 |
| Pond hockey is open to all levels of talent. When your goal is a five gallon bucket, even a rookie is likely to score. |

 |
| Digging the puck out of the grass... |
 |
| ....breaking loose |
 |
| The crowd around the goal... |
 |
| After two hours of hockey, some post game refreshment - pannukakku. |
