We got about 6-7 inches of snow here in central PA last night, so this afternoon, my siblings and I went outside and enjoyed it. I tried snowboarding. It was pretty fun. Where my family lives, our backyard is one big hill. I've never skied and never snowboarded before (okay, I may have tried it once or twice previous years) so I didn't quite know what I was doing. My brother recently got into skiing and snowboarding so I saw a few youtube videos on how to do it. I guess I was okay at it. I fell down a lot and got snow down my coat more than once. But it was fun to try something new. Each time I started down the hill, it was like starting an adventure (a very short one sometimes) because I didn't know how far I would make it and if I would possibly hurt myself. But it was really fun and I'm really glad I tried it. 
And by the way, the above picture is nothing like what I was doing. More like this. But I wasn't quite that epic.
Sounds fun, and also hard. There's a snowboarding class at the same time as my skiing class, and the people always fall down a lot. I want to try it sometime, though.
ReplyDeleteWow... 7 inches sounds like so little. Pittsburgh just got *pounded* with about 26 inches.
