Sledding Anyone?

Well, our vacation is complete--we've been sledding! We went to a great park for sledding today--lots of big hills. The kids had a blast and sledded down and trudged up that hill for almost 2 hours! I took lots of video and pictures and even went sledding down once. That was enough for me--with all my aches and pains I'm afraid of really hurting myself. Do I sound old or what?
I love this picture--Two men headed up the hill talking about their amazing sled run.
Do you notice how happily Joe has posed for pictures this trip? The cold makes him cooperative.

Here comes Grace with everybody else behind her.
Here's the view from the bottom of the hill where I spent most of the time. It was warmer down there and less wind. It was practically a heat wave today--the temp went above 35 I think.

Here's a picture of my one and only sled run. I think I yelled the whole way down--I felt so out of control!

This was triple decker sledding. If you look closely you'll see three people on each sled.



Crash!
And below--a couple of live action videos for your viewing enjoyment.

Well, even though I only see you once in a while our little town seems weird without you around, so I agree with Julie, you need to come home!
Your sledding looked fun. I love sledding. We had a hill in our back yard and it was always fun.
