There’s no new ER episode tonight, so instead of watching television our gang of 6 go have some fun on the ice. It’s a really nice skating rink on a circular, man-made lake in Outremont. In the middle is an island with a building that is heated and used for people to warm up (it’s rather cold tonight) and put on their skates. From the speakers there are madrigals playing. Very civilized indeed.
I didn’t skate myself, because I have no skates and I’m not really a skater. But I watched the others, and enjoyed the hot chocolate we went drinking afterwards. ER becomes more and more an excuse to meet and talk. Nice.
