Snow is Ok.

It snowed here in the Midwest on Friday. It was a nice six to eight inches of white fluffy wet stuff, of which great childhood memories are made. I spotted a number of hills full loaded with young children, adolescent kids, older kids and maybe even a parent or two, taking advantage of snow this weekend.

I am sure that for some of the smaller kids, the winter snow of February 2009, will live long in there memories. Mine go back a few years more than that, but they are just as special in their own right. After all, it is hard to slide down a hill on a Play-station, or Wii. And though you might work up a mild sweat with your Wii, you will never get that thrill of acceleration as your sled picks up speed at a near 32 feet/second/squared rate of acceleration. It's not often you get to do that without breaking something!
