I dont wanna snowshoe anymore! (It's a new hit song)

Grant and Victoria got a taste of the good life with Dad taking them on sleds behind our very expensive brand new snowmobile! Ha. (Craigslist is the hubby hobby) He found two matching racing sleds that have some sort of steering apparatus and hooked them behind this old snowmobile he found for $300.00. Renting one is $500.00 so he thought we could try out the concept this way for less. I call that justification. Wink.
Slogging up the hill in knee deep snow- the snowmobile wouldn't make it up in the powder so they had to pack down a path for it.

Geared up and ready to roll. Apparently they only fell off a couple of times. They went into the camper, back out and the kids wanted to go again so they did the whole trip all over again. There is not cushion on those little sleds so Victoria has a pretty sore differential as well as a sore back. She said she wants to go again today so she must feel it is worth it. She gleefully told me that it was a bit dangerous, but so much fun. Uh Oh.

Whoa Nellie! Well, that sounds like Gent..."make-er work...Get-er done"! Is this work or fun?...maybe a little of both. It is really pretty up there in the winter!
