She had a pond up the back of her dirt road where we skated along with her extended family that lived on the dirt road. It was so ala natural. As we would say "the good old days". The marsh is great, too. I skated there on occasions."

They look so Christmasy! No skating stories here, just lots of sledding parties and bumps and bruises. It usually wouldn't stay cold enough long enough to keep the ponds frozen enough to skate. I'm the sit by the fire and drink hot cocoa type!<br />Stay warm and have fun!<br />DebraDebra@CommonGroundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830455848744270459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28036611114081787.post-48130018382220744822010-02-07T07:04:17.826-05:002010-02-07T07:04:17.826-05:00Hi Karen!!

Your blog again, is stunning and you are always invited for a dance, a hunk of bread, some wine or tea at my place! Have a great day out in my old neck of the woods!

Thanks for stopping by, I didn't skate much as a kid by my children do and actually tonight my 2 youngest were able to skate with 2 of their cousins on their homemade rink!

My mother would put one skate on me to get used to it, don't think that really helped. God bless my mother for bringing me and my brother there on all those cold winter days and nights, just watching us fall. P.S. They want to open the marsh again. Wouldn't that be wonderful!!!!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247678019906313292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28036611114081787.post-63258904446858287282010-02-03T02:33:47.733-05:002010-02-03T02:33:47.733-05:00Ice skating is a bit foreign here in Oz but I did ...Ice skating is a bit foreign here in Oz but I did have a pair of roller skates once upon-a- time.

There was always a pair of skates in the house just in case! Everytime we went out Dad would take a pick and see how deep the ice was that day and he kept a rope with a life vest close by just in case. Always prepared! <br /><br />~KristineBeach Cottage Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00114348247365761550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28036611114081787.post-57133781266052982732010-02-02T01:21:34.445-05:002010-02-02T01:21:34.445-05:00Love your skate wreath, Karen!
