On
Christmas
in
1989
I got an American Eagle wooden
sled
. I had been
longing
for a sled such as that for a couple
year
s, so, in my
eye
s, was the most beautiful thing I had ever laid my eyes upon. And, luckily, a few days after Christmas we had a
big snow
. I thought it would be a wonderful
time
to try out my
awesome
sled. (1.) So i went to St. Camillus
Hill
, where all my friends sledded, to break it in. (2.) After going down the hill once and having a wonderful time, this younger
kid
asked to borrow my sled. I let him
borrow
it. (3.) Some of my friends had just then asked me to go to the top of the hill and
ride
down on their
innertube
, so I had no problem with him using it.
The innertube was always made for an exciting time. There were about five of us who had decided to go down the hill on the tube at once. The
trip
, initially, was fairly enjoyable. We bounced over a few humps in the snow and
stuff
, but about half-way down the hill I saw a very
distressing
sight
...the kid I loaned my sled to was on a
collision course
with us!
We could not turn the innertube in time.....
(4.) The kid
dove
off my sled, but the sled itself was not spared. I heard a sickening *
crack
!* as we ran over it. (5.) I then began to
cry
. I cried the rest of the way down the hill,
mourn
ing the
death
of my sled.
The next
day
, having
thought
the
ordeal
of the
previous
day was behind me, I went outside to get the
newspaper
for my mother. On the
front page
there was an
image
that
dredge
d up the
memories
I had tried to forget about the day before. It was a giant
photo
of me, on the innertube right after the
collision
, crying. The
headline
for the picture read, in all capital letters, with three exclamation points, as if to rub it in my poor little face, "
FUN
IN THE SNOW!!!
" There was no fun to be had on that day...oh no. It was a
dark day
in my
life
, and I didn't need to
Corbin Times-Tribune
to rub that into my
face
