Winter Fun
So we headed out to the frozen Lake Carnegie in Princeton this afternoon to enjoy a little sliding around on the ice. The lake was plenty frozen ---- an almost 5 inch slab of ice could be seen at the edge ---- and the town had come out to play. There were folks in ice skates with hockey pucks and a plan, busily playing a pickup game. There were lots of people like us ---- sliding about in their sneakers and laughing ---- and then there were the funny sights: people in dress shoes, sliding about; folks on their cell phones, talking in the middle of the lake (I imagine that these conversations went like this: "I'm on the ice; talking on the phone"); and one dude (out-of-towner?) smoking a cigarette there in the middle of the frozen lake.
But mostly it was good old-fashioned fun. We haven't had a big snow so far this winter but the ice was pretty terrific.
