The Skating Pond by sunnygreenwood

The Skating Pond

The sun had already set by the time we got the kids' skates on. Even with the warmth of the pot-belly-stoved hut it was too chilly to stay very long, but the little time we did spend there was the highlight of our 6 year old granddaughter's New Years Eve.

The "pond" is flooded regularly, shovelled and has perfectly straight "boards" of snow along the edges. It also happens to sport two brand new hockey nets!

Many thanks for dropping by.
It looks like they are having fun. It is very cold here today so I can relate. Nice pink glow at in the background.

Awesome neighbours to do this! It takes a lot of work but well worth it when you see pictures like this!
Perfect exposure and nice pink glow in the background.
