Ravings from the Rink: Skate Canada 2019
I’m writing this blog post (well, at least starting it…) the day after getting home from Kelowna (after a whole day of travel) and to say that it’s been hard adjusting to normal life after one of the most wild weekends of skating I’ve ever experienced in my life is... a severe understatement to say the least. It’s been an incredible 6 days of adventures and the best kind of happy exhaustion, the kind that you’re so excited to recount, revisit, and share with everyone.
