Fun Fun ride down the hill...........

We couldn't find any sleds in Connie's garage, so, we found a FedEX box that had a wax coating and it made a great slick sled. Then, a card board box worked, but, it got wet faster and melted into pieces after awhile. Lastly, the kids got a coke box and used it after Marsha and I finished our sledding.

Great fun and Great memories and the kids were amazed that you could use something other than a real sled to go down a hill! Old Folks still have great ideas to make FUN happen!
