It snowed.
While Iris detailed the front steps, building cairns from crusted icy snow,
Martin cleared (a small part of) the driveway.
Instead of shoveling the snow off to the side, he decided to take it elsewhere.
He filled the sled with snow
until it was full,
then pulled it to the back yard
and released it
down the hill.
He dumped the snow-filled sled
just outside the fence
and went back up the hill to get more.
It’s fantastic that Martin can turn the snow shoveling chore into a game. I’m also impressed that he can aim that wide sled between the gate posts. If it were me, the sled would bump into both posts at once.
Actually, it was a miracle. After releasing the sled, he fully expected it to bump into both posts at once and didn’t breathe until long after Akiva was safely in the field.
