Back in the day Tarry Hall roller rink was where I spent most of my time. Well at least once a week for speed skating practice and Fri. and Sat. night sessions. Randy managed that rink for many years, as well as being the head speed skating coach which led my sister to a bronze metal as #3 in the nation back in 1989-1990. I loved to skate, but I was not as competitive as my sister. I had just been moved up to the advance team and Randy decided to no longer coach, so I decided to no longer skate. Well last week, he asked if he could take the girls roller skating for the first time, well I wanted to go to. So we all went skating for the day. Emma loved it from the get go, and it took Gracie a little while to warm up, well they lasted 3 hours, not to bad for a 4 year old. It sure brought back a lot of memories for me. I met one of my dearest friends there (yes you ..Jenny) and to this day we still reminisce about that place, and we always end up laughing. Randy was in his glory and it probably brought back a lot of memories about Nikki and I as well. I was a little sore the next day, afterall I had to wear rentals. I have never worn rentals. I use to have the coolest skates, not so much now. Oohh well, we had a great time and so did the girls.
