"Ice skates....need my ice skates!"

When I was around 12 yrs old, living in mid-Michigan (middle of the mitten), we had an ice storm on top of a one foot crusted snow layer. Many of my buddies and I discovered we could actually skate cross-country.

We spent the entire day skating to different farms, up and down hills....what a hoot. The only time we would break thru was if weeds or tall grass was above the snow, which cut down the thickness of the ice layer.....and oh yeah....no school.

Glorious day, but I think I slept for a week I was soooo tired.
