This painting intrigued me! I wish I knew the thoughts of the artist, because it is still a mystery to me!

These Amish youth are enjoying this cold weather to get some ice skating in. On some ponds they also play ice hockey. I think this photo shows them playing a game, where they tag people on the other team, and they can only be released when you sneak behind the lines and tag them. This cold spell lasted almost 4 weeks. I think the skating ended several days ago. It is pouring “cats and dogs” today. Forecast is for some freezing rain, which I hope doesn’t happen.
Axe throwing is becoming popular in the USA! This young boy tried his hand at it, but will have to build up his muscles to be able to throw it. He overcomes that obstacles and stands up to the board and drives the axe into it! He definitely was persistent.
My cousin’s son demonstrates his skill at solving the Rubik’s cube, while his cousin looks on. He had just come from a local competition in Des Moines, Iowa where he won several awards for his speed. I had never seen so many kinds of cubes before, or seen anyone solve them this fast. He solved the Rubik’s cube in his cousin’s hand in less than 10 seconds. The Rubik’s Cube in his hand took him much less than a minute to complete. I wish I could remember the exact times!?!
This brought back memories of the many Track & Field days, I have been involved in, either as a student, or as a principal.
