First, I love the contrasting colors; the stark black against a pure, untouched snow with the pop of orange peaking up in the wheels.
ReplyDeleteThe unlaced boot of the skate and the free-wheeling, straight-up tongue act like a beacon that says: the snow is temporary! Hoist me up, knock off the slushy mess, sit me out to dry for a bit, lace me up, find my mate, and lets roll!
Two things spring to mind: 1. That can't be good for the leather, and 2. who lost the lace for that expensive roller skate?

ReplyDeleteWhat springs to my mind: "I ain't got time for the summertime blues. Ice Hockey! Snowball fights! Sledding! Wee-Hee!"
