Photo of the day: First day of skating on the Rideau Canal

Here’s a great photo from Daniel Bach , who was out skating today the Rideau Canal. Today was the first day of skating season for 2012.

And also a quote from one of our readers, Maureen :

_ "Skating is making frozen lemonade from endless, cold, dark, winter lemons." _
