Tonight we dicided to go ice blocking.
To start out with, it was just Jeni, Spencer, and I, then we figured we should invite Sami. By the end of it, 7 people came.
So, it took a good 3 hours to finally get to Simplot Hill, mostly because people are slow-pokes, and I am including myself in this one. There were trains, singles, wrecks, jumps, flips, pain...the list goes on...eventually we moved from ice blocks to just rolling down the hill.
Probably the best thing ever. You get going so fast that you don't know where you're going to end up, all you can do is hope it's not in the middle of the street or on an ice block that had been carelessly left there to melt into the oblivion.
As we were about to leave and taking our final roll down the hill, a suburban drove by, turned into the parking lot, and 2 men came over and each picked up an ice block. They climbed up the hill and let us know that they had never done this before and were asking for our help and guidance. They were about 40 years old, which is the funny part.
We helped them out, and probably made their entire night. They were having so much fun! They thought it was the greatest thing in the world! It brought them back to childhood.
It was about 2 am by the time we finally left (Jeni and Jared were talking forever!) I'm really glad we all went. ILML!!!!
