The boys, Larry and Joey, joined Pop Pop this morning on an adventure to the snow. I was too stick to partake of the fun. Anyway Pop Pop did the driving since he has a 4X4 Jeep Liberty and up the hill they headed. They went just past Sly Park up on Emigrant Trail as far as the jeep allowed.
Once they'd reached their location they had all kinds of fun in the snow - sledding, slip sliding and not to mention getting stuck. Apparently the Jeep could only go so far before it got stuck in the road and with a little assistance from some other snow goers was soon unstuck and they made a quick u-turn and headed back down a little ways to were the going wasn't so rough.
Apparently the jeep wasn't the only thing to get stuck as Joey too had to be unstuck a number of times due to the deep snow drifts. Larry said he soon learned how to crab crawl across the tops of the drifts so that he wouldn't get stuck as often. He and Joey took a few turns sledding down the small slopes, along with the other 4-5 families that were playing in the same area. They made snowballs and in general just had a rowsing good time.
On the way home they stopped off in Placerville and had all you can eat Chinese for lunch along with ice cream and pudding for dessert. Yummy.
All in all according to the boys it was a really fun day and they enjoyed spending it with Pop's.
