CopterDoctor<p>I grew up in western Massachusetts. In the winter, the park department would check the thickness of the ice on local ponds &amp; lakes so the public could skate safely. </p><p>When it was really cold for a while, they would plow the snow off the lake so we could skate. One lake at Forest Park was a long one. I could skate for a 1/4 mile before I had to turn around. </p><p>I miss those days.

Tamami<p>When my husband is in treatment, I’m not allowed to stay. So I go on a long walk. Stop for a cup of coffee. Then walk more. Today I chatted with a woman in her 70’s. Her daughter was also in treatment. She walks, for the same reason. There are lots of trails, paths, gardens and courtyards. Because for some people, hot or cold, the sky and wildflowers offer more consolation than anything else. <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/cancersucks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cancersucks</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>getoutside</span></a></p>
