Sledding

Thanks to the first snow of the year, and some planning ahead, our first sledding of the year was a success! This fall I mowed the sledding hill all the way to the top. That gave us about 500ft of a mostly tall weed and grass free sled run. It's quite a walk up the hill, but it is soooo worth it. We were going farther and faster (and for longer runs) than ever before. There is a nice little hump halfway down the sledding hill that if you hit just right you can catch some air. There is a bit of a drawback though. We do have to be careful of hitting the electric fence, or going into the drainage ditch. Anyway, I went up that hill 4 or 5 times yesterday, and 8-10 times today, and that is my workout for the weekend.
