Hadn't Realized That We Bought a Sledding Hill. Awesome!

The family spent a weekend in Hope in mid-March to go sledding, have a fire, and camp out in the Gillespie's cabin . . .
The view down the driveway before we made any tracks.  The snow was deep and the berm high.  We'll probabal need to have it cleared out by Willy with Heavy Equipment in order to have driveway access before July.  Our sledding day was initially driven by competing ideologies . . . some that wanted to spend time carefully crafting a bobsled track with banked turns, and others that JUST WANTED TO FUCKING RIDE THE SLED DOWN THE HILL!!! YEAH! LET'S GO!! WOOOOO!!!! 


Here's Jeanie clearing a track while the going was still slow . ..

Mom and Dad riding . . .

 Here's a video of Matt riding . . .

Jonas was tired but had a big grin when he rode the sled . . .

The bench still works

The Gillespie's cabin where we stayed the night . . . we need a cabin like this in the Holler.
