Thank you! I can’t wait til early spring when the moss starts greening up and I can truly lean into the name of this newsletter!

Looks like fun. I remember skating at UConn and on the frozen river behind our house. Don't know if I could still do it, though.

It's so beautiful and peaceful! And your footnote had me laughing. "Women your age" -- too funny! Thanks for sharing the forest skating experience.

He also mentioned that most of the injuries were wrist injuries from falling forward onto the ice and it wasn’t until I started skating that I thought, “Wait, how is a helmet going to protect my wrists?!”

Haha. Women skaters must be part of a mysterious force field, where up is down. Seems he should be handing out wrist braces! :)
