When cold is really not that cold

When it snowed on Saturday i thought to myself wow this sucks. As i am not a big fan of snow i didn't like it one bit. Its cold, wet, and terribly messy......especially if there is a ton, like the 23 odd inches we got in our area. so on Sunday when the opportunity to go sledding arose i cringed at the idea. The thought of being cold wet and uncomfortable was like a needle in my backside. but i thought hey what better do you have to do???? So i went thinking i was only going to watch. At least that would be entertaining. So off we went to a spot neat grant avenue. When i got there there was groves of people. going up and down the hill at alarming rate. i still thought no im just goin to watch. My friends decided to make a private spot for us. As soon as i saw the first run down the hill i knew i wanted to try. So i did. the speed and pure rush of sledding is enough to make anyone amped up. And after seeing all of my friends having fun sledding, a couple sharing a snow kiss, me making snow angles and tearing up the snow on our self made sled i realized that it wasnt so cold anymore. Its never cold wet and boring when u have the love and warm hearts of your friends. i was saddened to leave but i will remember that time as a fun adventure. You may say no more snow..........but im dreaming of a white christmas......Happy holidays to all.
