wipeout

The trouble started at the top of the hill...

and you may have guessed where things went from there...

Wayne and Wells managed to avoid the crash, but Anne Lawson and Mommy wiped out pretty hard. Everyone was fine, just a little snowy/muddy.

Anne Lawson did not cry, but promptly stated "Mommy, snow mouth, out".

Wells was not about to loosen his grip after seeing Mommy crash with A.L.

just enough

It was not quite the 1-3 inches promised by the weatherman, but the dusting we got on Saturday was just enough to make Caldwell Park sleddable.

Anne Lawson wasted no time getting strapped in and ready to go.

And was immediately ready for more!
