Ice Fishing & Snowmobiling at Night

January 28, 2013February 9, 2013 by Each Week Unique, posted in Sports

Our neighbor invited us ice fishing… And so we went. On the way we stopped at 3 places looking to buy a fishing license. We purchased the family deal and saved $15, just another perk of being married… Cheaper fishing licenses.

Our neighbor Chuck and his buddies had already been fishing for awhile when we drove up, conveniently we parked on the ice right next to the popup huts.

Neither Ryan nor I caught anything but it was fun to drink a beer and hope for bites.

We took a break from the strenuous ice fishing and went in a snowmobile ride. It was my first time on a snowmobile. And it was dark and on a lake.

Red Bull Crashed Ice came back to St. Paul for the second year. This year we were in town to watch. It was great to see. We had to leave because our toes were freezing.

Figure Skating

We live in MN but we grew up in Iowa therefore we did not skate out of the womb straight onto the ice. Ryan and I have skated a few times here and there but we are by no means seasoned professionals. In order to feel a bit more Minnesotan we went ice skating at Eagan Civic Arena with a hobby figure skater.

After a few laps around the ice our feet were sore but our balance was better. We were the oldest people there without kiddos on the ice. And all the kiddos were naturals on the ice. Kelly gave us a few pointers. Besides being a figure skater, she is also a skating teacher for little ones. Kelly also showed us some awesome figure skating moves – spins and jumps and such!
