Toboggan Nationals 2010










So the toboggan nationals 2010 has come and gone and I can honestly say it was as much if not more fun that I remembered. Sure it is 17 degrees at the warmest part of the day and I don't think i could feel my feet by 10am, but it really is just sheer enjoyment. It is a toss up as to which part I enjoy the most. Watching the ridiculous costumes or watching Jay and his buddies bond over beverages, breakfast sandwiches and brownie bites. Well their team didn't make it to the finals, which was too bad (or actually great because we didn't have to return the next day). I think next year they are going to try and rebuild the toboggan in an attempt to create a winning team Wax that Ash...Yes, that is the team name. (Ash is the wood that the toboggan is made from...not a weird reference to me, just in case you were wondering). So all in all it was a great weekend...(well until Sunday morning..see stupid Maine woman story) We got to visit with lots of family and friends, met some new people (well I did at least) ate great food and came home with all body parts attached and defrosted. Here are some pics from the weekend.
