Pond Skating

Last week, Frank took Tyler to a local pond to see how he would do and if he would be able to skate. After two hours, Frank had his answer. Tyler loved it! I, of course, was disappointed that I missed the whole night and that the camera didn't have any batteries! But the weather was still very cold this week, and they decided to go again tonight! The pond they skate at is in East Longmeadow, and in the summertime, people go to the park to feed the ducks and swans. In the winter they do a great job of testing the ice our and cleaning the snow off the pond.
As soon as Tyler got on the ice, he took off! He simply loves to skate!

An essential part of a good skate is remembering the stick! Here's Tyler working on his face-off technique!
All smiles despite the cold!
