The morning topic was how to keep the kids and their sleds away.

Best answer was build a fence.

    At least the fence will keep the sleds away, but maybe not the kids!

    Well a good idea - especially if there is danger - better put warning signs up too. sandie

    I like it, Jim. My story finds a way to keep the adults out.

    Alas, I don't believe their fence will keep out persistent kids! Those little darlings will find a way. LOL

    Do you really think a mere fence will keep avid sledders out?

    If memory serves me right, I think not!

    Let's hope regular fencing does the trick. Wouldn't want the constructionaires to have to resort to THIS KIND. (Oh, no!)

    I know kids who see a fence as a challenge, but I like your take on the prompt.

    Hi Jim, just been reading some of your blog. My, my! You went to Biltmore? Just over the mountains from me. And where in Tennessee did you visit? I'm just outside Elizabethton, TN, sitting here waiting for winter to really kick in; bah.
