What are you doing today? Slacking? Well get off your bum – it’s a great day to get outside and be oh so DC. “How?” you ask? Well, by going ice skating on the National Mall!

While not as fun as Kickball on the National Mall, it does excite. Even the Zambezi makes folks giggle and smile, not to mention the high romance points you’ll be throwing down if you take the love of your life.

Me, I just have a few observations about ice to share:
– it can be very hard
– it can be very dry
– it can be very smooth
– it can be very rough
– it can be very hard
