Ice skating is one activity that we can all take part in together, so on the weekends, we are always looking for a place to go. Since it's too warm to skate outside (I'm not complaining), we are left with finding an indoor rink. We like Union Arena, but Woodstock is a bit of a trek, and out of the way. We just don't go that way much, and do so only to skate.
I did some research and learned that Hartford has its own rink. So does Lebanon, but they are not usually open on the weekends. The Hartford rink has good hours on Saturday and Sunday, so this past weekend we checked it out. It was pretty hopping, with lots of little kids learning the ropes. The ice was not in the best condition, kind of choppy, but the rink is big, and you can't beat the price. We also saw our excavator man there with his family, it's a small world up here.
We had a lot of fun, the kids enjoyed watching all the other people skate, and we got some exercise, though R still has some issues with her skates. We just can't seem to find the perfect pair. Maybe it just doesn't exist.
Good to have another alternative for Winter fun. We'll make the most of it. Thanks for reading, and thanks to Amy Palm for the pic.
