Memories from Randboro
When I was a kid, growing up in Randboro, one of my greatest delights in the winter was toboganning...... We lived in a little valley,with hills on all sides of us... So toboggan hills were plentiful, and they were BIG..... Billy Graham's hill at the bottom corner of town was my favourite.....
Today I was in Fenelon Falls, and spotted this hill just on the outskirts of town... Man, if I'd had a magic carpet in the trunk, I'd have gotten it out and whooooooooooooshed down the hill a couple of times!!

That hill looks like it would be a lot of fun. With your magic carpet, you could probably go a lot further than your could in your car!
My parents used to take us toboganning several times during the winter on Sunday afternoons. After which, we'd all go out to a restaurant for supper. Back then, that was a real treat.
I also had a magic carpet that I used to take to school...boy, could that thing MOVE. I guess that's probably why they wouldn't let us use it on the one hill - too slick; no helmuts in those days.
Lovely memories.
I did that ONCE! when I was a kid!
It would still be a lot of fun to whooooosh down the hill...I'm thinking that the walk back up tho would be a bit more effort than it used to be!
Hi Paul!
Now that looks like a cool hill! Can you promise me I won't fall backwards while sledding though? ;)
