Video: Snow Day In Seattle!

Winter has been a long time coming in the western U.S., but when it did finally arrive, it came in with a vengeance. Heavy snow has now fallen across that part of the country, much to the delight of skiers and snowboarders everywhere.

One of the best things about a big snow storm is that it often brings an unexpected snow day with it. And when the city of Seattle didn't get around to plowing some of the streets, the local kids (big and small) took advantage of the situation and broke out the sleds. The result is the video below, which is just full of good old fashioned fun and evokes memories of snow days long past in my youth.

I absolutely love the kid in the red sled who is wearing a bike helmet and ski goggles. Something tells me we'll see him again in the future.
