Oh what do you do in the winter time?

It has been snowing here with some regularity since about christmas. I've been getting a good workout with all the shoveling, and I've certainly been feeling it.

I didn't have to go into work today, but I did have to work nine hours on Saturday, so don't be to jealous of me. It was fun to have a weekday off with the family. After doing some shoveling, we borrowed some sleds and headed for the hills. Fortunately for the wife and I it wasn't really a big hill, but plenty big for the kids. We spent quite a while sledding and otherwise playing in the snow. I got a good workout carrying children up the hill and forging paths as we trekked into uncharted territory. It was pretty awesome. We had pristine snow and were all alone to be as crazy as we wanted. I look forward to another weekday off to spend some fun time with the family, or maybe I'll go skiing next time.

Sounds like a fabulous midweek Saturday to me.

Sounds like a fabulous family activity - and no crowds on a weekday.

I love SNOW DAYS! I haven't gotten a really good one this winter, but only a few miles East of me there's over 30 feet of snow. I guess that's best in the long run.
