We went finely for about an hour when a couple of big boobs came came along and ended it. The thing spun around on circles on the ice then went straight into a tree. Cush went right into the tree sideways, with his sled. They were going good too. I did'nt go that  time but my sled did and it got bent and broken in a few places.

Holiday. Lincoln's birthday. I fixed up and repaired my sled and then I went out coasting. Something is the matter with my sled it doesn't steer as well. Nothing very exciting done except when R.
