The ice crust on much of our snow has added sledding speed to our sloping fields. And, with that speed, came squeals of uncontrollable joy from two children yesterday. Here, you see a girl sliding and spinning and screaming on her descending disc:
IBelow, you see a boy (her brother?) shouting while taking a straighter course in a plastic sled. A smiling young woman (their mother?) joined them in her own larger plastic sled.
It looked like one of those moments of pure fun that will be remembered by the children when they are middle-aged or older and they tell stories about the “winter of 2021 in Maine.” (Brooklin, Maine)
