so i went out skating at lunch again. turns out? it’s bloody hard to skate into winds gusting from 20 to 45 mph.
but it’s crazy good fun to just stand there while the tailwind pushes you along. no kidding, i was laughing out loud and grinning like a dork, just getting pushed along, out alone on the ice. so it’s all good. winds tomorrow only 5 to 10 mph. may be too warm to skate, though (low 40s and sunny — and there were slick spots with melted water today, when it was in the 30s and quasi-sunny!). boo, hiss.
