Ok - there ARE places in Arizona that have snow and skiing and sledding, so maybe the more appropriate title would be SLEDDING - VALLEY OF THE SUN STYLE.  We met up with 3 of my cousins and their kids (Dean pictured above) and my brother's kids to enjoy some playtime at the park.  As we were getting ready to leave I saw lots of people trying to sled down the hill on cardboard.  I say "trying" because it is not very effective!  Lots of pushing and even pulling to get their homemade sled down the hill...not very memorable if you trying to have a fun ride......HILARIOUS if you are watching!!!  As I walked along further I came across Tony and some kids truly sledding down the hill.  A wonderfully, kind woman let them borrow her Summer Sled (see summersled.com).  This red plastic sled has 7 wheels underneath it and all the kids loved it!  We tried buying one, but they are sold out currently.  Fortunately, we have dry, grassy hills nearly 365 days a year.  When we get our hands on one, the Stock's will be found at hilly parks!

A summer sled? That is the best idea I ever heard! Yes, you NEED one of those.
