Sledding- Florida Style

Who says you have to have snow to go sledding? When you live in the hills all you need is ice in the winter or even just an ordinary cardboard box will do the rest of the year. Here are several shots that we had to share. Such old-fashioned fun!!

That's hilarious! Who would ever have thought of it? Very creative "out of the box" idea and obviously loads of fun. Thanks for sharing that.

How fun! We are expecting snow this weekend and we have a great hill to sled down. It has been cold and rainy here most of the winter. When I told the kids it might snow here, they said they were ready for summer!

Elizabeth,the girls actually came up with the idea and it was SO fun!:)

Michelle, it must be so beautiful up your way. We may be in FL but I can relate to your boys being ready for the summer. We had that two week period here recently with the COLD temps and our homes just aren't built for it. It was one of the first times I was looking forward to the hot weather here. Hope you take pics of the sledding to share with us. :)
