Good Purchase

Amy is moving so she needed to clear out her garage to lighten the moving load. She ran across some used-only-once sleds that she didn’t want to take to flat Kansas. They are the Back-to-the-Future version of a metal saucer that was the latest innovation when I was a kid and hiked mine up the Sugar House hill. I’d drag it behind me as I clanked up the hill. A line of frozen gloves with kids attached stood in queue hanging on the steel handrail – a line all the way to the top. Amy got a bite on ksl.com, so she met the potential buyer at a nearby park. We’ll take them! The buyer said. Their family collects sleds; they have over a hundred; and they didn’t have these! They’ll reunion on the hill next winter.
