Skating Anyone?

From this past weekend came this inspiration....


That would be my garden - a large raised bed adjacent to the machine shed.  The freeze-thaw cycle of late has left a glaze of imperfect ice and snow atop the dirt.  The 'Ah-Ha' moment came when Blonde Lab skittered-across the surface attempting a crossing while running at full-tilt.

How about this - when it's cold enough I could snake a hose from the slop sink in the garage and flood that garden with several applications of water.  Thus making a skating-rink.  The best part is that the perimeter of the garden would contain the water efficiently and there is no risk to breaking thru the ice.

Grandson might get skates when he visits in the winter....
