From the outside, ice rinks don’t look like much to be desired.
Tin shapeless walls don’t give any idea of what you can experience inside.
But once you step through those double doors; everything changes.
At first all you notice are the below 32 degrees temperature, then you begin to see the air flowing out of your mouth.
As eyes soak in the hanging jerseys of local greats, you think that you might stay awhile.
A smile creases’ your face as you hear the crisp cut of your blades into the ice.
While flying down the ice at hair whipping speeds you let out a yell of triumph.
You shout, “This is the greatest place ever!!”
