The Sled Hill

This has been one abnormal winter in the midwest. We've only had two snowfalls that amounted to anything more than a ground dusting, so there hasn't been much outdoor fun for the kids this year. However, last night we got about 5-6" of snow. So the kids and I flew through their studies as fast as we could this morning and were out the door about 11:30 to get to the sled hill. Eric ran into a couple of friends from his public school days (three years ago!), I got to go down the hill with Charlotte on her sled, and we all had a ball. I do have to say, though, that at the top of this particular hill the windchill must make the temperature about 30 deg. colder than at the bottom of the hill. It was a might breezy up top.

Who needs bullies when you can white-wash yourself?
