Cardboard Boxes and Slippery Slides
Friday, 15 January 2010 00:00
One of my most loved winter sports is tobogganing. Whether I am in BC or Winnipeg tobogganing= pure joy! For those of you who, like me, may be more mathematically inclined I have developed a formula to explain the logic of the fun of tobogganing.
[Incline x gravity + sliding object + (snow - unnecessary fluff)] x friends = awesomeness^ awesomeness
(that is awesomeness to the power of awesomeness basically equals a lot of awesome!)
So, last weekend, myself along with Jennifer, Katelyn, and Natalie, along with friends from Eastview Community Church, headed to a nearby hill for an afternoon of sledding. As we decked out in our snow gear we soon realized we didn’t have a sled… HOWEVER, we did have a few cardboard boxes around the house which we used as improvised toboggans.
We acquired minor injuries, a sore tailbone, tired arms, and maybe a bruise or two, all of which are battle wounds of an epic afternoon! Thankfully we have friends with tea and hot chocolate who invited us over and allowed us to warm up and rest from a glorious afternoon!
