Mama Kat Thursday: Ice Skating Memories
The Mama Kat blog writing prompt suggestion I'm doing today is, "tell us about the last time you went ice skating." Last time I went ice skating....? How about somewhere in the range of 45 years ago. I only ever went once. Once was enough. The Indiana Farmers Coliseum in Indianapolis on the State Fair grounds hosts events and entertainment all year round ranging from concerts to livestock shows to Hockey. I remember seeing the Shrine Circus there a couple times and Holiday On Ice performances several times. Winter is Hockey season, though and the Coliseum floor gets a iced and is available for public ice skating during the day, skate rentals included. I think it might've been a 4-H club trip outing with several club members the time we went, since Mother & Dad were the leaders, plus my sisters and myself. I was in my teens. I did know how to roller skate well enough to mostly stay upright and circle around the rink with the rest of the crowd....
