snowball in hell

It was a bit cold for making snowballs so we needed to dig down a foot or so to reach packing snow. We had been throwing from behind the same house for a few days now. The owner never came out to yell at us and we suspected he was on vacation, since the same lights were always on. It was a good location because it backed to a few acres of woods and fields. We knew the field and its obstacles better than anyone so the occasional victim that decided to leave their car and chase us had little chance of catching us.

    I’ve read parts 1-3 and this story is fantastic. I love the narrator’s voice and the description of the events and surroundings are spot-on. I didn’t grow up in the ‘70’s, but the story put me right there.

    Well done!

    Funny…I like how strategic and thoughtful these kids are about throwing snowballs.
