Old sled gets new riders

[flywise]

I got this for Christmas when I was 7-8 so it’s around 55 years old. (I grew up in Tulsa- we got 2-3 good snowfalls a year) When I saw the forecast I got it out of the attic and gave it a coat of linseed oil then offered to lend it to the kids next door. It will be cool to see it flying down the hills again - great memories.

Too cool.....

We never got nuff snow to purchase (if they were even available round here) sleds. We just used old car hoods, 55 gal drums, or tractor tires. Snow or sun w latter 2.

Front or rear tractor tire? Last time it snowed heavy I tried everything imaginable to pull my kids in the pasture. Never even thought about the tire I have in the field. Its a big rear tire. But its worth a try.

I’ve got my great uncles old sled, may have to give it a go tomorrow. The little man is itching to go sledding.
