Sledding in Colorado

We went sledding in Colorado.The grandbabies and step son have never seen snow,
let alone, slid down a hill!
I have always LOVED to go sledding,
but the past few years I have been terrified to,
as I have had major disc problems,
and didn't want to mess anything up on vacation!
HOWEVER:  I went down twice!
Once on a piece of plastic,
which was as close to a garbage bag as I could get..
my favorite way to slide,
and second, after I climbed the hill with the camera....
why I did this, I'll never know,
because the only way I could get the carmera back down
was to wrap it in my coat and slide down in the saucer,
hoping to not crash and break said camera.
All turned out well!
Terry even went down once!
Mostly I took video, cause it was just so darn much fun,
but here are a few photos.
I'll try to get a video or two up,
however.....as I've said before...
I suck at technology!
Enjoy!

Hil couldn't figure out how to get back up the hill after she went down,
so Terry hooked her poles together and pulled her up.
