"Hey Magnus, we just went through a repeat of the New Year's slushfest. Rather than shovel and scrape and rinse and repeat, I am leaving it. Just came in and you know what? It isn't awful. It's gritty and where I roof raked its a bit wavy, but I…"
"Not sure exactly what we got. The rain before messed with any snow to make a mess. Furthermore, the weight actually broke what little ice there was forcing the unfrozen water up exacerbating the slush problem. I spent about 8 hrs during the cold…"
"Hey Magnus, how's the skating? Rink looks great. How did you fare with the slush?"
"My sympathies -- I can relate. Moved from NH to Upstate and finally settling in Traverse City, MI. Moving decisions went like the draft. Lots of war room discussion as to what was truly sentimental (smile). Not sure if I have enough surface to…"
"Great looking rink, Magnus. Have you had the tractor on the new ice surface yet? Would love to hear how you configured it. "
"Hey Tim, Go Blue! great looking rink. How is this year going for you?"

Hey Joe, I think I lucked out. Nearly all of the slush froze the first night (one of our rare low-teen nights this winter) and I was able to get things back in skating condition within a day or two. Granted, I spent nearly all of New Year's day working on the rink, but could've been much worse. Just had a couple of nearly perfect skating days, but looks like we're back in the 40's for the next three. Hopefully will cool down again for the weekend. Sounds like you guys got hit with more of that wet snow that we did, so hopefully the short cold snap helped you out as well.
