Well I headed out to the park today for an exteneded last skate session. I was starting to warm up and thinking about what I would write about my last session. I hit a nice boardslide on the high round slider bar and when I landed I heard a crack and the sound of metal tingling. My kingpin of my trucj had just snpped. so that was it. My last time at the park was ending right now.
I silently cursed the kingpin and then stoodback to take the park in. i walked from ramp to ramp and thougth about what I had accomplished in the year since the park had opened. I know nobody will be out there in the freezing cold shoveling off the mini ramp to skate. I kind of took an owner ship of the park.
i can almost remember all the times I did not go. As long as it was not raining or snowing I was there. And sometimes it was raining or snowing when I was there. The major times I was not there were: Rubys birth and baby moon, her hospital stay, any vacation days, Sarahs surgery. I dont think I ever decided to just not go if it was a skate-able day.
Anyway... it was nice to have the everyday skating be in my life again.
