This winter has been a good skating winter. I always say that I want to go skating, but in the end I don’t go that much. Sometimes I don’t go for the entire winter, but this year I’ve gone three times so far, for the lighting of City Hall, at the Richmond Green skating trail last week, and at Harbourfront on Saturday.

When I heard about the skating trail at Richmond Green, I was intrigued because I envisioned a walking trail winding through the park that had been covered with ice. In reality, it was a little like that, but also a bit not. It was a trail with ice over it, bordered by rocks and trees; but it was also wide and not really a long circuit. It was kind of like a big fat boomerang shaped rink with rocks and trees. A little more interesting than the normal oval outdoor rink, but not worth the drive to Acton Elgin Mills.

Hannah organized a skate yesterday at Harbourfront which was fun. I think I have skated enough this winter to not get tired or achy the day after, although I’m still not getting any better.
