The kids and I went up with my friend Jenny. We had to check the night before to see if the kids' ice skates still fit (they're the adjustable size kind), and fortunately they did.
The ice seemed kind of thin at the north end, so we headed to the cove on the east side. Our first year up here for ice skating, only this section was frozen, and the rest was open water.
Desert Girl did a fair bit of rollerblading this summer, so she put on the skates and was off.

Eventually we moved out on the bigger part of the lake and found the south end was good, although it made some weird noises. It was fun skating with Wheeler Peak in the background.
It was warm. So warm that Desert Boy decided to take his shirt off.
Our friend Meg came and made it look easy!
Desert Girl and Jenny did some more artistic moves.
We had such a wonderful time that we knew we had to come back...to be continued...

This seems like about the neatest thing to do in the whole world...so pristine & uncrowded.
Noticed a small typo about the skates, "to see if they still *foot*"
