Kilted Sledding! Woohoo!!

[Frank MacDuffy]

Wow, I went sledding with a friend yesterday. I decided I should test the cold weather capabilities of my Workman's UK by sledding. I actually stayed warm until I was going down a steep hill and was launched off of the next hill. I landed and got about three feet before I hit a block of ice and was sent flying through the air. My friend thinks it was the coolest and most horrible thing he's ever seen. When I was launched from my sled I was sent into a front flip, halfway through it though I was spun 180 degrees and was in a back flip! As I was flipping I felt cold air in places cold air wasn't meant to go. I managed to cover "the boys" but I mooned my poor friend in mid-air. He had a hard time recovering from that. He told me: "I turned around to see where you were, and all I saw was this moon flying from the snow!! It was the most horrible thing I've ever seen!" As we're trudging back up the hill he tells me:
"I can't believe you landed on your feet!"
"What? What are you talking about? I landed on my feet!!??"
"Yeah! It was the craziest thing! You actually landed on your feet!"
I hadn't even noticed I'd landed on my feet! There's NO WAY I could've done anything like that if I'd tried! I think that's the craziest thing that's ever happened to me. My friend insisted on taking some pictures after we went sledding "because it takes some serious balls to do what you just did!" If I can get the pics from him I'll post 'em here. That was fun, I'll have to do it again some time.int:

I haven't been on a sled (well it was usually an inner tube from a deuce and a half) since I left Utah. Good times, though I don't believe I would want to do it kilted. brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr indeed!

Ha, ain't that true!
We always had to build a jump at the bottom of the hill too. Just in case you made it that far in one piece.

Then again there was that time I came down the hill, managed to make it across the flat area at the bottom, then slid down another & into the creek.
That was indeed COLD water.
