My friend Joel took this picture of my skates while we were at the Covent Market rink a couple of weeks ago. The rink is now closed for the season which makes me a bit sad because I really do enjoy skating but it also makes me happy because maybe, just maybe, spring is really on its way.

my skates are from gradeschool too! they look identical to yours!
Our parents must have invested in only the best…for them to last as long as they have!
That’s a nice skate right there.
Don’t forget about its partner taking a rest on the ground.
