Snow Play

A couple Saturdays ago we took Julia up to play in the snow, which she had never done.  She hadn't even ever seen or touched snow.  We took the long route to the cabin in Williams, going through Yarnell to see the after-effects of this summer's fire.  It's still a pretty sad sight.  At the cabin we picked up our sleds, checked to make sure everything was okay, and got a little practice playing on the ice.  Then it was off to the Wing Mtn Snow Play Area, just north of Flagstaff.  Yes, this an area where you pay $15 a car to go play in the snow.  I'm sure anyone east of the Mississippi reading this will get a hearty chuckle out of that.  Someone is making a bundle off all us Phoenicians coming up for a few hours of fun.  They do have port-a-potties and a snackbar, plus people had already made cool snow-men which you could appropriate for yourselves.  We brought a lunch and enjoyed it on seats of hay.  It wasn't as much fun for Bobbins, esp. the long car rides, but she enjoyed watching us sled around.  MM seemed to get into it more than JoJo, of course.  By the end they were getting wet and cold so it was time to motor home.
