Skating Fam

What do you do when you hear someone has had a good idea??
You join in.
Grandad suggested we take advantage of the good weather and let E challenge the 7.8km skate from Dow's Lake to downtown.
A quick photo-op and they were off.
 
Myself and A were not ready to take on that kind of distance so we took a short cut via car to downtown and jumped on the canal there.
(Thanks for the help with the bag Granny.)
 
The first group moved at lightning fast speed.
We were still putting on our skates when they texted that they were over half way.
We met close to downtown and did the last bit of the route together.
Next time we'll skate at Dow's Lake and they can skate downtown and back!
 
One of the best things about skating the canal?
The Beavertails!
 
Mmmm......sugary goodness.
Super idea Grandad.
E's first end to end skate and I got on my skates for the first time this year.
Great day.
And the fun just keeps on keeping on.
