Keeping Cool - Sit on a Block of Ice

These kids are sitting on blocks of ice and "sledding" down Simplot Hill. It sounds odd, but it's a long-time tradition in Boise.

  2. I think it sounds fun. Not sure who long the ice would last here though.

  3. All the 'sledders' are so young and joyful. This is a delightful image.

  4. Now that's a new way to beat the heat! Looks like fun, but I bet your hiney is wet when you get to the bottom of the hill.

  5. Nice to have to keep cool - the max temp today here (Wales) was 16c (61f) - and it's high summer!
    Never mind I'm off to Turkey next week on holiday and the temp there at the moment is 35c (95f)!

  6. That's hilarious!! If your temps are reaching 100, maybe everyone should try it!
