They say what goes up must come down, but who says you have to do it in a boring way? Hundreds of people came to watch an unusual sort of sledding competition in a Minneapolis park. It's called the “Art Sled Rally.” The goal was to get down the hill in the most creative, fancy or plain-old ridiculous manner possible. From sleds shaped like dinosaurs to bunny-covered sleds, it was an exercise in wintry outrageousness.

WOW!!! I thought the story about the art sled competiton was really cool. My favorite one was the bunny. Maybe some day I could go to Minneapolis and try that. I could make a lion, cow, or maybe even a donkey.
