Rothesay in Winter
This is one of the houses in Rothesay.
There was almost no downtown but there was a large field in the
center of town where we saw some Scottish Highland Games during
the summer. An outdoor iceskating rink appeared on the Green
during the winter. |

That winter, my Mom showed us her ice-skating
abilities. We all thought she was very good at it. And we all
love it when we watch my Dad's old home movies of her skating,
especially the double-exposed parts. It's some of my Dad's best
camera work, looking back at it now. It shows my Mom gracefully
skating superimposed on local scenery and Rothesay in winter. |

Time for a break: us kids were quite
pleased - there was Mom doing something much better than our
Dad. It was all a lot of fun. The kids weren't very good on our
first try at skating but my Dad did give one of his funny performances.
From the left, that's my Mom, me, my little sister Shawn and
older brother Steve. |
