It’s coooold out there, and there’s ice on the roads.

I love to ice skate. I also like to keep my feet warm, which is not what you expect to be able to do when you have skates on, so I don't get to skate as much as I used to. So you tell your boys to do some skating for me. Pictures?
Good work out indeed! What a cool place to go, too.
