Sledding in Nauvoo

First of all: Google rocks. This impromtu sledding adventure was brought about by Nate. After the luncheon for JJ and Joni, I was desperate for some sledding action. One problem: No sled. I looked around for anything that would second as a sled but nothing was around but despair and unfulfilled dreams. I was told the nearest place to buy a sled was 15 minutes away. That wasn't going to do ... no time ... I think it was Josh that recommended that we use garbage bags. Well, the caterers had plenty of those and graciously gave us 6 bags. We all raced to the hill, punched two holes in the bottom of the bags and wore them like shorts! We scaled the hill and down we went on our "boo-hineys". Very fun. Well, dad comes rolling up to the hill to take pictures and to film us, and he has a stroke of genius. The wheel cover for the spare on the back door of his van was perfect for sledding. See for yourself!
