Skating in a winter wonderland

The Girl skated in another show today, at the imposing Albany Academies.  Blimey, the hours it involves, for a mere blink-and-you've-missed-it ninety second performance.  Though in fact she got to stand on the ice quite a bit longer as they struggled to get her music to play...  She stood firm in her place, like a true professional.

She did very well, especially taking into account that she'd had next to no sleep the night before (friend's birthday party) and no breakfast or lunch to speak of.  She spent the rest of the day recovering, floppily.

Meanwhile, the Boy was off with his buddy, sledding.  The Man and I also looked for some snow action and took ourselves up to Thacher Park, where it was perishing cold, with a stiff wind whipping snow crystals in our faces.  We stayed up there longer than a one-minute skating programme, but not much.

There's a chance of more snow tomorrow.  Maybe we're going to have that doozy of a winter after all?
