Cold Snap in DC - Ice Skating

Ice Skating

2018 started with some super cold temperatures ... and very little precipitation ... perfect for ice skating.

On January 6, we went to check out the ice on the Canal near the Chain Bridge.

Conditions were ideal for skating and hockey, we passed the puck a bit. When we drove by again on Sunday, at least 300 people were skating.

Lake Barcroft

On Sunday, thanks to our friends in Lake Barcroft, we got some less populated ice ... with lots more space to roam. And thanks to Craigslist, RJ got a pair of skates for $15. RJ fell a lot, but towards the end he got used to it. And as soon as he fell, he popped right back up. By the end of the day, he was completely drenched with sweat.
