Sledding in Atlanta! Our driveway was a big hit with the kids...
It's got a long gentle slope and it iced over after our little dusting of snow. Once word got out, every kid on the street was here! Why do they even have sleds (little plastic types)? They had so much fun.

They were on it until dark last night. It's 12 degrees and they are back this morning!

The old man wants to salt it so we can get out at some point. Gonna be some disappointed kids soon.

Strange times in Atlanta!

1. So... the kids are sledding out into traffic?
I'm not saying that's wrong, necessarily, just curious.:)

2. no, the opposite, lol. The street is uphill...
they have started at the top, slide down the driveway next to the house, through a double gate, pick up a little speed and then slide off the bottom into a pile of leaves. I'm sure this is a liability! I stoppped them when they were trying to stand up and surf down. That was scary!
