I didn't want to hijack the thread below, but it reminded me of my son and his buddy. One nice warm summer day I saw them leaving with an old runner sled that we kept hanging in the shed. I asked them what they were up to, and they said they were gonna clean it up and paint it over at his buddy's house. About a week later I happened to see them bringing it home, and I'd never seen a sled in worse condition. It looked like it had been run over by a tractor. I asked them what happened to it, and after while they broke down and told me they were using it to slide down his buddy's barn roof. I couldn't believe they'd come off of a big barn roof like that, and said so, but they said his dad had a big pile of manure positioned perfectly to land on. A few days later I ran into his dad at the mill and asked him what he thought of them using his barn roof for a sled run. He got a funny look on his face and said, "So THAT'S what made those stripes on my barn roof". The kids said the runners lined up perfectly with the corrigations in the tin. So - all you guys with real young boys - this is what you can look forward to as they get older, HA!
