Sledding

Christine and I went sledding today with another couple. We went to nearby Mendon Ponds Park, a massive park with terrain that is absolutely perfect for sledding.

When we had gone there a few weeks ago with another set of friends there was snow at least a foot deep, but this time it was a bit thin. However, it did not stop us from having lot of fun!

We had 4 sleds - three circular ones that we labeled flying saucers and the fourth one resembling a traditional sled. We tried several combinations with the sleds, including 'chaining' them with all four going down the slope front-to-back, each holding on to the person in the front. This was called a Caterpillar.

We did this until 5:00PM or so when a light consistent snow fall set in. The light snow fall did turn into heavy snow within an hour, though.
