Ever sit around and wonder to yourself . . . “Hmmm . . I wonder what happens when it rains a lot in Wisconsin in January??”
Yep . . . your very own nice, solid ice rink in your backyard . . .
Here ya go – –
That’s frozen solid. Ice skating anyone?
My Backyard Ice Rink
January 13, 2005
Hmmmm – – I’d say it floods
Floods . . then freezes.
We’re about to break out the ice skates over here!
I can’t honestly say I’d considered it much before now…LOL
Uhhmm….flooding?
My sister does it deliberately each winter for her boys to skate on, She builds it up layer by layer so it is solid ice, safer than skating on a pond.
🙄 I know it STINKS, because I live up north in Rhinelander. Ha-Ha! At least it gives me the perfect excuse to work on my business, since it’s way too frozen, cold and yukky to do anything else.:!:
So, how are you liking the rain that we in California sent you?
Oooh pretty!! I’d love to live in WI someday. 🙂
Sounds like fun 🙂
Lisa- I watch for your weather reports because usually MI gets your conditions within 48 hours. What a mess! This has been the oddest week in a long time. Are your trees (schrubs) going to make it? We have flood warnings in our area. The rivers are up!
It is raining in Florida…. yesterday it was 87. 87 is just not right for January
Looks about like our driveway did for around a week. That inch of freezing rain was NOT nice!
*ding, dong*
Hi, my name is Jeanette. Can I come in?
*ice skates in hand*
Hello! Unfortunately, I have no fun ice skating rink… but all over Madison, I’m slipping & landing right on my TUSH because of all this ice!! 🙂
I totally love ice skating!!! I’m going here (KY) on Sunday …but NOT IN MY BACKYARD ..That’s way to kewl! H*LL …make a few bucks ..start charging admission!
Pam – they’re little evergreens – and I hope they’ll make it! It’s still frozen solid down there .. poor little things.
How’s the weather up in MN?
Jeanette – come on over – – bring to cocoa, I’ve got the marshmallows!
Principessa – hey neighbor!
This winter is weird, man – – bad bad for skiing so far, too 🙁
strawberrie – excellent idea! 😆
I miss the midwest..goofy weather and all. We had 70 and balmy yesterday and 18 today. But no snow yet this year..hmmph. And our skiing is nil this season, too.

i’m in india. here people (who can afford it) take vacations and travel on hills just to see some snow.
Weather is flipping cold! I don’t mind cold, but waking up and running out to start the truck because it’s 15 below before I hop into the shower is just no good! At least I’ve chipped most of the ice off the deck, at least the new deck.
All you need is a chain saw!\:d/
:(( I am so jelous. We live in South Africa What is snow?????lol
