We currently live in Maryland but I remember the one time we went and visited Vermont over Christmas I believe because there was snow on the ground the next morning. I got to see baby birds in the nest right outside the window and that made a whole world of difference to me since I was such a young kid.

My younger sister moved on to snowboarding, but I've always had a special place in my heart for our old rail-sled. Especially when it was icy, that rail-sled would FLY! You could find yourself a hundred yards away before you realized you'd even hopped on! There's no better feeling than the frosty air in your face, filling your lungs, water streaking back from the corners of your eyes, and nothing but a sparkling white light in all directions... So fun!<br /> J.C. -Indiana-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-62450083061207339752015-10-28T13:26:04.802-07:002015-10-28T13:26:04.802-07:00Hi Trixie, your description belongs in a book.

Luckily, we had many city parks with nice hills to go down, I didn't even mind climbing back up those hills because I anticipated the thrill ride going down them again :-) By they time we'd have to go home, our cheeks were red with the cold and our snowsuits were wet from all the snow, but I didn't mind, I had fun!! Ahhh, great memories! <br />Thanks for sharing an excerpt of your newest story & for the interview. It's always nice to get to know you :-) <br /><br />Trixi in ORTrixi https://www.blogger.com/profile/03116805265841796307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-6509681207306052432015-10-28T11:02:09.541-07:002015-10-28T11:02:09.541-07:00I live in Wisconsin so we have lots of sledding an...I live in Wisconsin so we have lots of sledding and tobogganing going on here.
