Bad sledding day

DSCN2372

We had the brilliant idea to take the kids sledding at Sibley today. BAD IDEA!  We didn’t realize it was so darn icy.  Our first mistake was parking at the top of the hill.  I sent Kevin and Lauren down first because I wasn’t sure how the conditions were and wanted them to try it out before Jack and I went down.  It took them 30 minutes to climb back to the top with all of the ice.  (I could have drove to the bottom to get them, but Kevin had the darn keys.)

Then, we decided to sled up by our house (where we usually go) and it was so blasted windy that it picked up our tube and carried it away. Kevin was unable to catch it on foot (after traipsing through a muddy field, he gave up.)

Here it is in a ravine 1/2 a mile down the road (and slashed to bits.) UG!
