BRYAN EATON/Staff photo. The Graf Rink in Newburyport has been busy over school vacation and is probably safer spot to skate than area ponds as the temperatures have been well above freezing. Lyla McElroy, 4, of Newburyport with her dad Kyle spotting, started to lose her balance then took a spill and like falling off a horse, she got right back up to skate some more.
