From last winter, dad and daughter on the sled in the snow. Caroline and I once tried sledding here in the sand but it didn’t work out very well. There are a couple of reasons I really liked this photo, first, Katharina’s cheeks are so rosy red making her oh so cute. The other reason, look behind them on the left, what is that kid doing laying face down with his sled over him?
The thing that I love about this picture is the sleds that they are using. You can’t get hard rail type sleds anymore as they apparently have been outlawed. We are left with all sorts of other sled type devices but still nothing that has a small amount of friction and the ability to control your direction. So we are left with using our hands and feet to try and control our direction all while holding on to our children for some kind of safety.
