Hi CB....

Things are good! Thanks for asking. We’re back to schooling, etc. My son has a huge skating rink at his place, so he’s in his glory lol. He had his pond expanded last fall, and dredged, and put a fountain in the middle of it. Now it’s all weed free and frozen over nicely. It’s surrounded by trees, about 50 feet away from the house and yard, and he has lights all around. Hockey for all the neighbors and buddies, and skating for the kids and non-hockey playing adults. The pond is a good size - probably 1/4 acre. Now he just needs a Zamboni!

Kids all fine. Just looking forward to my new sofa and loveseat - due in February (ordered in September) and it better not be late! Thankfully it’s made in Canada so the truckers can truck it. What a mess this fruitcake Prime Minister is making of our country as well.

Wow, a personal skating rink! I love the way you guys take advantage of your winter weather. Talked about making lemons out of lemonade. So is he looking on eBay for used Zamboni?

Have you been sitting on the floor, waiting for furniture? We will need pictures! Of the furniture, not of you sitting on the floor. Unless you want to.

Oh, how fun!

Having spent my 1st 12 years of life in Utah, summers were spent at the roller-skating rink and the pool, winters at the ice-skating rink.

An idol of mine was Sonja Henie.

Moved to NM where they had a professional hockey team, was thrilled to go see them.

Didn’t last long, they moved and the rink shut down and became a furniture store.😒
