Let's Skate! Part 2


Today we went skating at Lake of the Isles. Our second ice skating excursion of the year. The weather was a balmy 25 degrees, but there was a brisk wind. Our friends Lisa and Gil joined us. Susan and Hondo took a walk. 

Pros: we were outside and the sky was beautiful. The warming house was spacious and, well, warm. The lake was pretty cool to look at. We could see the islands in the distance. Susan could join us and walk Hondo.


Cons: the wind was so cold! The ice was pretty bumpy compared to last week, but that is to be expected. Lisa commented that the rink seemed smaller than in previous years. 


All in all a good experience. Cold but not unbearable, though I was wearing hand and foot warmers. Can't wait for Powderhorn's rink to open next week!
