White board sledding

Posted in Antics, Friends by jmanassero on February 12, 2010

Those who have been reading lately might be getting a little jealous. I haven’t had school since Tuesday, and with the Monday holiday, won’t be back until next Tuesday. It’s been a 6-day weekend and the fun has just begun.

It’s well known in Philadelphia that after it snows, people head for the steps of the renowned Philadelphia Art Museum – made famous by the movie Rocky (as seen here). People grab whatever household items that will slide down the snow-covered steps. From garbage can lids to cardboard, little kids and adults rush the steps and sled their way to the bottom.

We grabbed some plastic folders, cardboard box lids and a whiteboard and headed for the Museum.

And this is what we saw:

And this is what we did:

This fantasy is sure to come to an end eventually. Just not yet.

    We were there – without the snow – wish we were sliding down with you. Fun, fun, fun. Love, Mom
