Martha and Jaye kick off their "Wintertime Outdoor Adventure" series with one of their favorite childhood pastimes: Ice skating! Learn where you can find outdoor and indoor rinks along Lake Superior's North Shore. Also where NOT to try to ice skate. Then they head up to the Cook County Community Center for the grand opening of the brand new warming house and concession stand at the Grand Marais ice rink. They interview Diane Booth, director of the Cook County Community Center, and Joan Farnum, board member.

Jaye is well aware that she forgot the full name of The Ruk in Silver Bay. It's Rukavina. :)
