Ice skating in the heat wave


Early June has been very hot. We've had four days over 100 degrees Celsius, and more over 90 degrees. Our tempers are flaring along with the temps outside. So, on Sunday, we were very happy when the Brownies field trip was scheduled for the local ice rink.

Owen had his first time on skates. He had lots of help and was very brave. Ms. Katie was a trouper and helped Owen around the rink twice.

Sounds like the perfect afternoon outing! Has Zoe skated in NC before? Was it just like riding a bike?

Yes, Zoe has been going to sports camp at the same rink for two summers. It's a very nice option to ice skate in hot North Carolina. Here's her start back in 2006: http://zoemarta.blogspot.com/2006/07/skating-solo.html
