The Hills Are Alive With The Sound Of......


     Screaming and yelling! That's what I
heard on the hills yesterday! Yea, some
laughter too!
     You see the cold temperatures made it
a prefect day to stay inside and relax!
      So.....we went outside!
      Well to be perfectly honest, we took 2
of our grand kids outside.
       They wanted to so a little sledding so
we drove around looking for a hill with
some snow. We found lots of snow. The
search for the hill came next.
       I've complained in some previous
Blogs about the fact that I don't see as many
kids playing outside these days.
      I was pleasantly surprised when we
pulled into the parking lot at Kirby Park!
The hills there were filled with kids sliding
on everything from traditional sleds to
inner tubes! These hills were alive with the
sounds of kids screaming with either glee
or fear. It depended, of course, of which
kid.
      The tracks from previous riders offered
evidence that plenty of other youngsters, or
those young in heart, had been using the hills
through most of the day!
       Yes...it was cold. Plenty cold. But the
kids held up well!
       And so did I! There's a great heater in
my van and clear windows to watch the kids
on that steep hill!
       Hope you had fun too and that all your
NEWS is good!
