We took the kids sledding on Christmas Day using the hood of an old pickup but the littler ones didn’t like all the snow that got in their faces. Yes, we are rednecks! Today they had fun just sledding down our hill with a regular sled. Then Mr. Ferrero Rocher came home for lunch and asked who wanted to try out the new sled. He welded four loops onto the inside of the satellite dish and strung rope through it creating a big square so we had handles to steady ourselves on the ride. I haven’t had that much fun screaming and laughing in a long time. It was a blast!
So what do YOU do with an old satellite dish?
We use ours for a sled.
Craig says
That looks like a blast!
Mommymita says
I’m wondering…… where do you get an old satellite dish anyways?
What makes it all the more fun is that is was spontaneous
I think rednecks have more fun

Great idea and clearly a ton o’ fun! I think I could hear you laughing all the way out here….

Calandria and I used to get pulled behind a snowmobile, inhaling all of that lovely exhaust. I appreciate the length of rope behind the pick up, that way the fumes are minimal!
Kassie says
What an awesome sled! Good thing you have plenty of space to pull it around in.
