Skating Memories on Wordless Wednesday

In all the years we've lived here, this has only happened ONCE!

Cold temps, high winds and no SNOW. The lake froze over like glass giving us
the WORLD'S BIGGEST SKATING RINK!

This is wonderful! We have a pond near me that we have gotten to skate on just a couple of times and it is so awesome. The ice looks delicious!

WOW! I can't even imagine a lake freezing! That is definitely something I would love to see someday. How fun!

Dear Ancestor

Your tombstone stands among the rest;
Neglected and alone.
The name and date are chiseled out
On polished, marble stone.
It reaches out to all who care
It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you
In flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
One hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left
Who would have loved you so.
I wonder how you lived and loved,
I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot,
And come to visit you.
