We built a little ice rink today for our super cute Christmas festival

My brother and Shane put down the underlayer


The top layer is white plastic that gets lubed up to skate on. Shane picked it up in Cheektowaga on Wednesday.


Tonya was extremely persistent in getting this project together - she got to be the first skater. She and her husband Tom had their first date ice skating.



I skated and it started snowing - it was really a fun moment. (photo by Julie)


Mataya & Liam skated

More pix tomorrow after the event!

A review from the last workshop:

Such a wonderful, rich experience. If you had told me that such a diverse bunch of people could have bonded like we did, I would have laughed in your face. The learning was deep AND broad. Plus, the emotional connections were amazing! Yet it was fun too! L & L will always bring a smile to my face. ( To know what L & L is you have to come to a workshop ;-) )
