BIGFOOT



The winter storm that blanked the Northeastern seaboard, with lots of snow, spared us here in Rhinebeck. Andrew and his friends were expecting at least a foot of fresh snow on the ground this morning and were all ready to enjoy it. Alas, they awoke to find the same hard crunchy snow that has been hanging around since last week. But, no new accumulation.

Regardless, they were determined to make the best of a disappointing day and still managed to get some sledding in. The snow cover on the hill was patchy at best, but enough snow and ice was there to allow them some fun. Here we have Andrew and his friends Otis, Cooper, and Ryan sledding down the hills behind Otis and Cooper's neighbor's house in Rhinecliff. The hills lead down to the Amtrak tracks and the Hudson River beyond. So, it is advisable to find a way to stop before that point.

Oh, and Jedi was along to merrily chase the boys and take a few runs down...
