Yes, I know funner is not a word, but it should be because we all know what it means🤣

Important: make sure you wear comfortable clothes including socks, and mittens, and a hat and a scarf that are warm and comfortable. It is good to layer up -and if the first layer that touches your body is silk or non- scratchy wool- that is a good thing. Remember, cotton is rotton because when we perspire, cotton can make you turn into a popsicle.

Another important thing: there has to be at least 4 inches of snow on the ground for this place to be open. If it is not open, then we will just go for a walk in this beautiful winter wonderland so bring your boots just in case -I repeat bring your boots just in case . nobody gets to wear their high heels or sandals or Birkenstocks ! we will save those for the summertime, but not on the hiking trails.

Afterwards, we will get something to eatties
Dinner reservations TBA-

So bundle up with your coaties, hatties, and mittenies, get your cute little tootsies ready, and Let’s get ready for some fun!
