A brief stay in Palmer for dentist checkups allowed us to put a perfect Saturday to good use and take the family sledding in Hatcher's Pass.
Driving the familiar switchbacks brought back memories of learning to ski on second hand boards and going for the biggest air we could imagine. If it looked like there was a chance for some serious bodily injury, it was fair game, and the more insane the better. It was a good indicator that I was getting older when I would find myself standing at the top of a run wondering what this would feel like in the morning. In my later years I would get a little wiser and start the morning with and Ibuprofen cocktail and end it with ice packs.
Today however was all about sledding, armed with a picnic lunch and a trunk full of sleds and inner-tubes we ventured out to play in the snow.
