Me and my housemates went sledding tonight. I took my snowboard because we didn't have enough sleds for us all. The hill wasn't as good as usual, there were tons of bumps and moguls. But we still had fun. I couldn't get too many pictures, because my camera kinda sucks in the dark and my batteries started to die. But here's what I got...

one of the guys crashing right before the "jump"

The batteries died before we could get a good shot of me "jumping", so this one was kinda posed...the look on my face is priceless. :D

pfft, you call that sledding.

When we sled and the hill sucks, we tie a tin(I think it's tin) canoe behind my truck and ride in that.

Yeah, we were thinking of doing donuts in the car while one person sat on a sled and held onto the rear bumper, but we didn't.

The funnest thing is getting somebody in the canoe, and sliding them into a steetpost/curb/ditch.

Ya, we're dumb.

Hey, we're just kids, right? What else would we be?? :rolleyes:

Going 70 and slamming the brakes is also fun. Just pray to god you can get the truck moving again before they take their head off on the bumper. We've tried donuts, the canoe just rolls and thats not very fun.

And to answer the burning question, yes, we are sober while doing this.

Those pics were funny, especially the one of you taerom. But seriously. Get rid of the old school bulls beanie. Please. I got my jordan jersey hanging up on my wall, you should retire the beanie man. Bulls suck.

hellz no! That's like my lucky hat now! My parents bought me a new one for xmas, but I don't plan on wearing it. I don't really even watch basketball any more, but I don't care. I'm keeping the Bulls hat. :)

Sledding to me is - an old wooden sled, running, belly flopping on it and going down a big hill. :) Yes, the old fashion way.:D

Here in Quakertown, Pa, nothing to talk about. Here one minute, gone the next. I like it this way, I don't have to worry who can't drive it the snow, besides me.
