Just Skating Around


     Around Christmas Time ALV, LES, and I decided to take advantage of the outdoor ice rink in downtown Pittsburgh.  I have lived in Pittsburgh for over five years and have always wanted to go ice skating there, but for no reason at all, have not gotten around to it.  I am so mad at myself for missing out all these years because it was so much fun. 



          I probably have not put on ice skates in 10 plus years,  it was a shaky start, but after a while I was able to do triple axels   stay balanced pretty well.  ( Just like riding a bike...right?)

   I cannot get this picture to turn, but it was so neat skating around Christmas time with all of the decorations and Christmas music, it really put me in the spirit. 

   I forgot how much I enjoyed ice skating, this will def. become a yearly tradition. 


When was the last time you ice skated?

  3. I didn't even know downtown Pittsburgh had a skating rink in the winter. I go ice skating every year in Detroit and love it. It's such a unique experience going skating outdoors in the city. xo
