Winter Weather

I woke up today to blizzard conditions here in Ohio. As much as I like the snow I think I have had enough. Cabin fever is setting in. I am sitting here pondering the past and how being a child in Ohio during the winter time was a blast. We didn't care how cold or how much snow was on the ground. We would bundle up in our winter clothing and participate in outside winter fun. We lived in a trailer park in Wilmington, Ohio and behind the trailer park was a very nice steep hill. All the kids in the park would meet on this hill. It was funny watching us all dragging our sleds or what ever else we could find to slide down that hill. We would spend hours upon hours sledding. We would have races to see who could go down this hill the fastest. Of course we did have a few mishaps like running into each other, falling off the sleds as we slid down the hill. What is quite remarkable is that we all got along. No one ever fought. We just wanted to have fun and enjoy our time as children.

If you have any childhood memories you would like to share just post it here. I would love to read them.
