I think I was still in highschool. We did not have a roller rink where I grew up, we had skating rinks in the great white north. I think maybe in Vancouver on an exchange trip I did and maybe once in the "city". But its not very common in the Canadian north. I did have roller blades for a short while when I was about 22 but I was pretty useless at it. LOL

Today is Roller Skating Day---so in honor of this fun day, share with us the last time you went roller skating!

About 10 years ago I decided to take up roller blading as a method of exercise..my husband was just beside himself in excitement and went out and bought me a very expensive pair of rollerblades...took me about 10 minutes before I went down a paved hill on my hands and knees (literally) without any padding or protection. I think that's about the last time I've skated! :)

And...did you use to hang out at the roller rink as a tween/teen--if so, what was your favorite song to roller skate to???

Heck yeah I hung out there! I don't recall what songs I loved to skate to (it was early 80's) but all that mattered was that some boy asked me to skate holding hands..who cares what was playing! HAHA!

I have plans to take my girls and their friends this evening. I also took them a few days before Christmas. The last time I actually skated was almost 2 years ago at my daughters Birhtday party and shattered my ankle while stadning still. We were out of state visiting family and I had a 6 hour drive to have surgery. I now have 2 plates and 8 screws so needless to say I won't be doing anymore roller skating with the girls. But LOVED it until then and went fairly often.

LOL...does it count if you were falling more than skating? If so, 6 years ago. If not, then not since I was about 13.

And...did you use to hang out at the roller rink as a tween/teen--if so, what was your favorite song to roller skate to???

Nope--before the 6 years ago thing, I had only ever been to a skating rink once in my life. And the only song I remember that time was the Hokey Pokey.

But, I used to skate around the neighborhood--especially when they laid new blacktop around my grandma's...WOW!
