Slip N Slides Are Not Just for Children

So as the title may imply, even adults can enjoy Slip N Slides. However, these are not the nice Slip N Slides we all remember having as a kid. You know, the ones with the smooth tarps and the nice big pool at the end...Yeah, not so much.

Try just a bunch of regular blue tarps held together and tied down with stakes and bags of potting soil, a hose held under a skateboard (that we tried to use as an awesome inventive way of going down the tarps but failed miserably), and baby oil. Lots and lots and lots of baby oil. Try that, and you will have one of the best days ever. Plus your skin will be incredibly smooth afterwards.

I did this with a few friends of mine today, and it was a blast. We've done it a few times, and each time seems to outdo itself. What's even more fun is tackling someone as they're running down the tarps...which then turns into a brutal wrestling match and dog pile...except everyone is too slippery to hold on to. It's just an awesome thing to do. Try it. Seriously. Right now. No, I mean it. Go find some tarps and some baby oil and some water.

Happy (early) 4th of July everyone!!
