Any Roller Skaters in Texas?

[kutia 0]

I went out today and bought myself a pair of skates. When I got home I laced them up and went for a roll around my house. (wood floors) WHEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! I'm sure I looked like a dork, but that's ok. I have to get used to the toe-stop again. It is just as much fun as I remembered but I don't remember it being so hard when I was 10. Definitley (sorry I can't spell that word) got my heart rate going.

Kutia:

You are ready to roll, huh? Looks like you are getting in a little extra practice, skating around the house. Hope I can keep up with you on Sunday! Yeee-ha, I'm excited!:clap2:

Hey ladies!! I just found this thread, and although I live between Denton and McKinney, I may come join ya'll!! Sounds like fun. I have some knee problems, but I do have rollerblades here that should fit me. If not, I will rent skates there. Do they allow rollerblades, too? Anyway, have to see what schedule allows for weekend. Sounds like SO MUCH FUN!!!

It would be great if you can make it! The White Rock Skating Rink allows rollerskates and rollerblades. Hope to see you there, if your schedule allows.

Oh, I don't think you'll have a problem. I'm still hanging on to whatever is handy. Haven't got my balance (or ability:p ) back yet.

Hi ladies! I looked for roller skates on ebay, but didn't find much. I have an old blue suede pair from the 1970's, but they are a little difficult to work with.

Mary-

Thanks for the message, I hope you can make it on Sunday!

Hey gals,

Wow!! I missed out on the fun it seems!! We got out of church late and then our exchange student was having another gal over so I made lunch/dinner for them. I made fried rice and some curry rice which are both foods they eat at home. Anyway, don't know about the next one. I do hope to attend the Dallas dinner at Jason's tomorrow night (Thursday). I belong to the DFW bandster group on yahoo and they have regularly scheduled dinners in different places every month. So, if any of you are interested, check out the dfw bandster group on yahoo and come along!!!

A friend of mine in Arlington has just joined a roller derby league...didn't know they had such a thing. Another friend of ours in Florida heard about it, checked there, and they have one, too! I remember watching rollerderby girls on TV back in the 60's (early 60's at that)....those gals were TOUGH. Maybe today's version is a 'kinder, gentler version"....

Proud of ya'll for getting out and there.....that's got to be great for the body and the spirit both!

See the directions to redbird in the 9/10 post!
