Sledding at Sweetened Water

This morning was an absolutely glorious day for sledding here on the Vineyard. We woke up to sunny skies, no wind, and a sledding hill all to ourselves! 
We picked up our good friend "Bubble Joel", and hit the slopes! I hadn't been sledding at Sweetened Water Farm since I was a little girl, it certainly brought back the very best memories for me. The snow was absolutely perfect, light and fluffy, but easily packed down, not slushy at all,  the air was cool, but not freezing, and without any wind, I think I could have stayed there all day long. 
At one point, we took a break from the slopes, to visit with the lonely horse in the barn for a little while, and by the time we came back out, Isaac's friend Harley was there! That was a fabulous surprise! The two of them had an absolute blast sliding down the hills together, laughing and giggling the whole way down. 
They'd get to the bottom of the hill, roll over and each say "Just one more?" 
I think Harley's mom and I had just as much fun sledding down with them, even when I wiped out trying to walk back up the hill. 









So fun! I'd say it was probably one of the best days ever!
