Since everybosy loves hearing about ME...:o) I did something cool the other day. My dad and I were shoveling snow in the driveway, and I got out our sled. There is a drift in our side yard about four feet high, that is iced over completely undernath about an inch of powdery snow. So, I took the sled and stood on it like a skateboard/snowboard and went down the hill. It took a while, and I have a bruised hip to prove my 'talents', but I finally suceeded in staying balanced on it until the bottom. Then there was a pile of snow that we had shoveled near the end of the driveway that was about five and a half feet tall, and really steep, so I went down that one too on the sled, and after three tries, I did it! Whoopee! Now I have to practice going down a real sledding hill like that....yipes.
Note: You amazing athletic people are probably going, 'Wow, big accomplishment! She slid down a whole FIVE FOOT pile of snow!'! But actually, this is very good for me, because I have never moved more than a foot on a skaetboard or snowboard for the matter, my entire life.

ReplyDeleteCoolness! Yeah, I've known you for a long time, and you were pretty much brought up with skateboarding. I have no doubt that you're ALOT better than I'll ever be at either.
ReplyDeleteAAAUUUGHGHGGH!!! Flamestar, for your poll, "Which Sports/Excercises are the best, you didn't make KARATE an option! Tsk tsk! How COULD you?!?!!
