First ice skate of the season in Keystone

Saturday was a cold and dreary day. It felt like we were back in Iowa with clouds and high humidity. We had a little snow Friday and again on Saturday night but it was below freezing all weekend.

We just realized this week that the kids skis were still in Keystone and we needed to exchange them. So, Anna and I made the drive up to the mountains. We had renters and with the reservation system we couldn’t ski. So, it was just a day trip and a good opportunity to do some ice skating. And best of all, when you bring your own skates the Keystone rink is free.

The second snow storm moved in Saturday night but we awoke to beautiful blue skies this morning. But it was cold, about 12 degrees when we woke up. It was a good day for watching football, which Jude did all day for the most part. Although we made him do some shoveling and he had a ride on the Peloton as well.
