Can Puig skate?
School finally let out.
Anticipation that had been building all day was finally realized in the task that lie ahead. The planning was on the fly and we knew we might be pushing things, but our desire was enough.
It’s was cold and windy for this early in the year and we knew that was perfect. Standing on the bank, looking out at the ice that was calling us to play. The apprehension of our crew needed a leader to show the way. Someone brave and a little crazy. I had to jump about 3 feet from the shore since the ice had not yet taken hold. Looking back to the shore our crew who were eager for their leap waited for me to test the ice. Standing on thin ice about 5 or 6 feet off shore I began the test, jumping up and down pounding the ice in a calculated attempt to break through, or at least find some cracks to determine its thickness. Three inches thick at 6 feet out. Testing again at 8 to 10 feet out, no more cracks.
Lets play !!!!
Thanks for the ping.
