Default ...... say yes to Ice Tennis!

Yesterday, Wednesday Jan 25 at about 11-am, there was a very expensive looking orange Kubota tractor with a snowblower out front that was streaming the icy slushy mix a big distance ...very impressive ice clean-up underway!

Plus, there was two walk behind machines with very big spinning brown brushes....like maybe 48" wide by 24" thick to groom and polish the ice.

Meredith Bay has no open water to be seen, except for dock circulators, and is looking way stronger than more open big water parts of the lake. Like Center Harbor Bay, and Meredith Bay are looking safe what with the four pickup trucks, spread over a distance, parked out on Center Harbor.

In addition to ice hockey......how's about a tennis court out on the ice.....for tennis played wearing ice skates....call it ice tennis. I bet you I could do that! Ice hockey and tennis are like buddy sports; both use eye and hand coordination and lots of movement. Playing tennis indoors at the Gilford Hills Tennis costs like $225/month so an el cheapo, local, winter tennis venue is definitely needed here!
