Super Sledding Adventure

By Shari Einhorn

So, for all you adults out there...I have a question...when was the last time you went sledding?  If you haven't been for a while...might I suggest you grab one of your kids flat, plastic discs or inflatable snow tubes...get a good running start and take a dive down a snow covered hill somewhere? 

This is me to the left!! 

It's like an instant flashback to when you were a kid!!  It erases all the stress and worry about your job and your mortgage and the oil delivery -- it's amazing! 

This guy below -- my husband of course!

We took the kids and met a bunch of people at a hill near our home...along with about a hundred other parents! 

Who says kids get to have all the fun?  We took turns sitting, lying, kneeling and barreling down the hill -- screaming and laughing like ... well like kids!!

There were a few other parents heading down the hill...but most seemed content to watch the kids have a blast!  Not us! 

Every adult in our group took a turn and another and another and another...check us out!!  

Here's the one thing though...

I don't remember it being so exhausting walking up the hill when we were younger??  We lasted about 2 hours and then called it quits, because, unfortunately, we had things to do.

But I can't wait until it snows again on a day that I'm off so we can go again!!  I had a terrific time...and oh yeah...so did the kids!

Happy sledding!
