Skating Season Ends Today
My skating season ended today. I started the season on the first Tues. of September and have missed only a couple of times. I've written before of how supportive this group is. It's been another season of fun , exercise and good friendship. Now for short summer break and then the first Tues. in Sept comes again and we skate some more.

I didn't take photos today . These photos are from previous years and you've seen some of them in previous posts.
Time to get the bike out. It does look a good outing.
ReplyDelete...and I've had my bike out already and ridden 50 km.
DeleteI think being a part of a skating group sounds awesome! I have only been ice skating a couple of times. And I have the bruises to prove it LOL
ReplyDeleteWell, you have to skate well enough to not hurt yourself and then it's fun.
DeleteGoodbye skating season - Ours ended a couple of weeks ago. Now the arena prepares for a "tradesman" show this weekend and the weekly "farmers market" starts. The IWK just had a carnival this past weekend at the arena....and so, the new spring season is well underway. Got the bike all tuned up n ready have you Red :)
ReplyDeleteOur ice stays in until July and then it's out for maintenance. Yes, get that bike on the road!
DeleteCongratulations on your good health!!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm fortunate.
DeleteI'm so glad you have this great group to skate with, Red. And I wish I had someplace near me where I could skate almost year round. Guess I should live in Canada, eh? :-)
ReplyDeleteYou know the pleasure of being in a very close group. I don't think you've got room in your schedule until next year when sky diving is finished.
DeleteI have not seen these photos. Oh, I would love to be able to ice skate. I feel lucky to keep my balance walking these days. :)
ReplyDeleteYes balance can be a problem. You work just a little harder at balance when you skate.
DeleteYou live such a healthy, good life! You are a great role model! I love how we have had similar teaching styles, too. cheers
ReplyDeleteHey, do you want to help me out on the spring bird count? I team taught science for about ten years. it was a great learning experience . It also built confidence.
DeleteI do remember you telling of your group skating. . Your so young at heart and able to skate physically. I know my days are over for skating.
ReplyDeletelook at you flying by at ease. Good for you.
I applaud you all.
Thank you. I really think that everybody has to find their place in activity and then go for it. I also cycle a 1000 km a summer.
DeleteNeat photos - and good for you for getting out and doing this! When I was a kid, I spent most of my skating excursions on the back of my head. Never could get the hang of it.
ReplyDeleteAs you see I wear a helmet. I always like to say I've never had to use it and that's just fine with me.
Deletehow awesome. love the smiles!
ReplyDeleteTues is always a good day.
DeleteIt looks like a joy to skate for everyone. Great you all together have so much exercise and fun!
ReplyDeleteI would like to skate outside but the indoor ice is much better.
DeleteAlways a good time on the ice
ReplyDeleteI look forward to Tuesdays.
DeleteThat does look like fun...:)
ReplyDeleteThe social aspect is the best.
DeleteWith all the snow you're been having I'd have thought you'd be skating year round this year. Take care.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'd hope we could at least skate outside!
DeleteI have always admired ice skaters! Some people make it looks so effortless:)
ReplyDeleteWe aren't the most graceful but we do have fun. We have about 40 skaters but only 15 - 20 show up each time.
ReplyDeleteIt does look like a lot of fun and good exercise.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great and supportive group to be with.
ReplyDeleteThis is just so wonderful, Red. It must be such a wonderful feeling. I really did try to learn. I really did, but I kept falling. I ended up just hanging on to the side rink railing. I marvel now to see my 7 year old granddaughter gliding around the ice. You are must be graceful too. :- )
