When I was 20, I rode horses, swam, rode a bike, skied, but I never ice skated. My best friend, who visited me for sketching on weekends, once told me, there should be nothing in this world you can’t do, she said, trust me. And after midnight, when yard was empty, we went to the ice skating rink. Since that it was our little secret, we skated at night for years. She died 22 years ago. And I never ice skated since then. And never will. Watercolor and ink in Pocket Moleskine.

Sorry, I’ve read it just now. My comment was only on the image of Moscow (alone, I did not read the text at first) – and the first association that came to my mind was that song.

A very sad story, and a wonderful work of art.

Thank you, guys, I think it is not sad, but wonderful to be so lucky to have real friends. I am happy to be the one.
@Ziza, thank you for your comments, its all cool, I just hate this old ladies song but love you and Moscow.

Glad to see that you revisited a theme challenge from the past you can look back at past themes and use them if inspiration strikes.
