Wee!




My grade school north of St Agatha had a nice tall toboggan hill at the foot of which was what is now call Notre Dame Dr. Even then, it could be a busy road. No worries, though, because between the road and the hill was a nice sturdy barbed wire fence.

We had an area that was a power-company right-of-way, cut clear of trees, with a fairly large hill on either side and a little stream filled with jagged rocks at the bottom. Not going into the stream was one's paramount goal. We managed this probably more than half of the time.
