Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 07, 2023

Come on, Chuck, join the fun!

Get an old auto tire, CB. That was my childhood.

I rarely saw snow when I was young. Ah—those were the days!

I should rent an earth mover and make a hill in my yard.

This reminds me of the video on the You Tube that shows a wild crow sledding on a plastic lid, down a snow-covered roof. At the end of the ride, it picks up the lid, flies to the top of the roof, and rides down again.

I think this was adapted into a scene in “I Want a Dog for Christmas.”

He can build another nest. It’s kind of his ‘thing’.

WHEE! WHEE!

I think Woodstock has the right idea…staying home, but still having fun!

Cute.

The only issue we had with the “Flying Saucer” was the lack of any kind of steering, though I did lose a tooth to a toboggan in the 1960’s, while kneeling in the front to steer over a stone wall. Later, when we got older and were provided machines to enhance our fun, we would tow the saucer behind a snowmobile (yes, they were snowmobiles then, not the snow machines of today) and try to fling the rider off. Lost one buddy, for a bit, inside the snow laden branch’s of a spruce tree. Yes, great fun that added to my growing collection of lifetime achievement awards (various aches, pains and surgically repaired things). Wouldn’t change a moment of it.

Just pure fun with no worries in the world!! :)

Woodstock is so cute!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Balduck Hill in Detroit. Great place to sled and toboggan in the 50’s.

I wonder what caused the momentary flash of yellow light in the third panel.

I had a metal saucer. It was fast. I waxed it. It was too fast.

“flying saucers” were dangerous… no way to steer

Wish I still had my wonderful Flexible Flyer! Whee!!

:D

Anybody want a snowboard? I have 2 in my storage unit here in Tucson.

Snoopy and Woodstock ………… both are Happy …… :)

When your ears flutter in the wind, it’s another level of fun.

Also redemands me of the lubricated saucer scene in Christmas Vacation. Belly laughs every time.

Whatever works.

Simple but effective
