Roller skating

I am watching the three Ohio grandkids, ages five seven and ten or so. .Today we went to the roller rink.

Yikes!

I sat there watching folks careen around out of contol and had to wonder how many people are killed or maimed on roller skates each year.?

Out on the rink the music was deafening....presumably to mask the cries of pain.....

I tried to skate but forgot about my leg length difference and found the shoe too painful and gave it up.
we came home and all three kids collapsed for a nap.
