Ice Arenas

February 7. 2019   We drove over to Middlebury  to buy a burl bowl that we saw the week before at Edgewater Gallery.  On the way,  there were many skating rinks--formed naturally from the rain last week and the melted snow from the warm days.  The largest was formed from overflow of the Otter Creek in the lowland  meadows of  Pittsford.  It appeared smooth and glassy and maybe an acre or more of ice!   On the way home there were two skaters at another naturally formed rink on Route 100 in Stockbridge.  Gee. I wish I hadn't given my ice skates away.   LRL
