I went on 2 winter hikes this week. The trail through the forest was perfect - covered in snow that was packed just enough for comfortable walking but still soft and fluffy.
Kids went sledding on the nearby hill. The beauty of having big kids: they can walk there all by themselves and I am OK not supervising them when they are sledding and snowboarding.
I think our pond is frozen enough to allow ice skating. Unfortunately, we are "on the clock" - it is going to get warmer in another day, so if we want to get any ice skating done it has to be today or maybe tomorrow. We'll see if we can manage to squeeze it in... We have a lot of stuff that needs to get done today/tomorrow.
Do you ever go ice skating on local ponds or lakes?
I watch too many horror movies to ice skate on a lake or a pond lol I know it's totally irrational. We have lake Surprise (actual name) at the reservation, so maybe I'll go check it out. From the lake bank. I love the fact that you did two winter hikes - well done!!
