Do you want crushed ice with that?

We are on our fourth ice storm in two years. I'll never forget Geoff careening down this hill during the first storm. He hiked to the top before settling on the sled. His life flashed before my eyes and then he narrowly survived his utter destruction down at the street. This hill in the backyard is convenient for sledding. Emily would have been in this picture today. She went out to join the neighbor kids. She put on her boots, her coat, her hat but forgot she isn't into freezing to death. She only lasted outside for maybe five or ten minutes.
