Alex and Chris go Ice Skating


Alex and Chris had some father son bonding at the roller skating rink the other night. Alex came home happy and excited to try it again some day.

I have fond roller skating memories from my childhood. I remember my first time at Skate World in Hillsboro Oregon. I went around the rink like 9 times. I know this because each time I slowly went around the rink I waved and smiled to my parents and thought "Hooray, I survived another lap!"

Skate World became a fixture in my life even into my teenage years. I bought a pair of speed skates and the world of roller skating opened up. Backwards skating, 180s, 360s, I was on those skates a ton.
