P.S. No – we don’t have that much snow. All our snow has melted. This was on our New Year’s Vacation. After a day of cross country skiing with his dad and cousins, Jackson still had enough energy to toboggan for a couple of hours. It was getting dark, but Jackson still didn’t want to go in. I don’t blame him – I tried that hill out. It was a great hill!
Awww… HOW FUN!!! I am jealous and so is Joey!! We haven’t had a good snow in YEARS and we are in Wyoming!! We are in the middle of the longest running drought in the history of our area and I am really tired of it!! When I was little we sledded our little hearts out, built snowmen and snow forts, and always had snow days. He’s had one snow day in the two years he’s been in school!! I am so sad he hasn’t gotten to experience the fun of a truly snowy Winter!
WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOo
Talk about a good workout! I am sure he slept well that night!
That looks SO fun! But it makes me tired just thinking about trudging back up! 🙂
Man am I jealous!! That is the hill of my dreams. Growing up in a Boston suburb, we had no open hills like that and were forced to improvise. So we’d sled down ambitious paths forged in the woods, over rocks, branches and other pointy things, and sometimes diretly into trees (ouch). I’m glad to see that Jackson appreciated his good fortune and made the most of it 🙂
A great picture! Lots of fun! He’s a brave soul! My girls chickened out on a little hill nearby. Oh well, maybe it’ll grown on them in the future. :0)
Wow. That looks like some hill. We have a huge hill out back, but not that big. We do however have LOTS of snow.
How fun… What a perfect hill for sledding! I’ll bet he climbed up that hill countless times, huh?
Happy WW!
Kids are tireless, aren’t they?
I’m here in the deep south and we NEVER see any thing like that. It’s beautiful. But having grown up in a warm place, I’m not sure my thin blood could take so much cold. Sure looks fun, though.
what a lot of snow!!!
Cool pic… though i am jonesing for spring!
I am so jealous! LOL We have had barely an inch of snow here in Connecticut all winter! My little one is begging to use her sled but it’s only ice/mud sledding for us this year I think…
I have a snowy picture too!
Ours all melted too and then it got cold, So now we are freezing with out the beauty and fun of the snow! 🙁
Wow. That’s quite a hill! How fun!
Remember how much work it took to get up those hills? But the ride down was ALWAYS worth it! No wonder we slept so well. ;o)
Hugs,

Such a beautiful setting! I wish I had that kind of energy still!
Looks like a lot of fun – was that Kelowna? Looks like somewhere in the interior. Glad you had fun.
The kids areound here were still trying to sled on the frozen grass after all of our snow melted! LOL I’m up!
Wow – that looks like fun!! Wish we could do that here. 🙂
Beautiful photo! Yes – what goes up must come down 🙂
I miss the snow – only for this kinda fun!
Looks like so much fun! Beautiful. My kids have been begging to go sledding!
Don’t you just love sledding! What a great picture.
My WW is up as well. Please stop by!
All that word seems to pay off on the quick ride down! Love it!
Oh how I miss the snow! I grew up in Illinois and loved dragging my sled up and down those hills full of snow! This is a great word picture that even through we experience the “down” times in life – this too shall pass – and the “up” times are next. Blessings sweet sisiter!
That is a beautiful picture. Sometimes I think it would be nice to live in a place that it snows for my childrens sake. They don’t get to experience things like that….but then I realize I would take the heat any day! For me, Snow is something you visit. 🙂
My kids would be loving that hill! I’m a first time Wordless Wednesday girl – it was fun. Our 9+ lives cat gave me good camera fodder this morning when he decided to get a drink from the center of our partially frozen pond. How do cat’s know when the ice is thick enough to walk on?
That looks like fun, my kids haven’t had the chance to go sledding yet this year
Woo Hooo! Looks like fun!
That’s a beautiful picture! The hill looks really big. He must be very brave to go sledding down that hill.
That is a beautiful view. We have your snow now, but not those mountians!
That looks like fun. I used to love to go sledding.
Love your title with this picture. So much work for that few moments of thrill coming down! Yet such fun it’s worth it! Beautiful scenery.
Wow!! My kids have never even seen that much snow – they would have loved it. What a gorgeous view!
What a great hill!!
My kids would have loved that hill. What a great place..where did you go? happy WW. mine is up too…its a snow picture as well.
Boy that’s quite the trek!
It does look like a fun sledding hill. Glad he had fun!
Have a great Wednesday!
The least favorite part… having to come back up the hill! You must have sent all the snow to us- we’ve had quite a bit every day and I love it!
Wow, what a gorgeous view!!
I am sure it was more fun coming down the hill then going back up, but I take it all the fun coming down just made it more worthwhile going all the way up again. Thanks for sharing and happy WW.
Come share my daughter’s close encounter 😉

There is no place for fun like the outdoors! Lovely picture!
Great Photo going up – is there a going down photo too?
I’m sure he had more fun sledding down the hill. What beautiful scenery in the backgrond!
Looks like so much fun! I want to go sledding before the season is over. Simple pleasures are the best!
Great picture! It looks very much like where I live!
I bet the going up isn’t as much fun!
Sounds like a blast! What a beautiful vacation that must have been!
That looks like quite a hill! (an view!) Looks totally fun!
That does look like a great hill!! What a wonderful photo…you have some great shots of Jackson….the scenery is beautiful too!
I love this photo of him walking up the mountain and the beautiful scenery in the background. What fun!
