The discussion highlights the excitement of the skating season opening at a 400-metre outdoor oval, where a parent and child enjoy skating together. The parent mentions their plans to visit Millennium Park's downtown ice rink, which has recently reopened for winter. This outdoor rink utilizes cooling pipes to maintain ice quality even in warmer temperatures, specifically up to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. The conversation emphasizes the joy of ice skating as a form of exercise and family activity.
This outdoor 400-metre (quarter mile) oval is where my daughter and I go skating. It opens for the season today, and we are just about to step out the door to walk (about 10 minutes) there!
Ice skating and baseball are my two favorite sports. Chicago has a downtown ice rink at Millennium Park that just opened again yesterday for the winter season. It is an outdoor rink, and it has cooling pipes underneath so they can keep the ice frozen for temperatures up to about ## 50^o ## F. I hope to skate there soon=perhaps this coming week. :)

And yes, today I went ice skating at Millennium Park in downtown Chicago. Temperatures were around 50 degrees, but the rink has cooling pipes underneath to keep the ice frozen. Good exercise. :)
Hey all. Looks like my 15 year anniversary of joining PF happened yesterday (while my internet was down). Just wanted to say thanks to everyone, staff and non-staff, for helping make PF such a wonderful community over the years. Here's to everyone at PF, current, past, or future. Cheers!
Every day we learn new things. Sometimes it's just a small fact or realization. No matter how trivial or random, let's start recording our daily lessons.
Please start off with "Today I learned". Keep commentary to a minimum and just LIKE posts. I'll start!
