The Flexaboard

It was an epic flexaboarding day here at the lake as two four-year-old and two six-year-old granddaughters took turns like old pros.

The flexaboard was handcrafted by my husband in 1977.  He decorated it in decoupage with pictures of Count Dracula, Bert, and Ernie from Sesame Street – our then four-year-old’s favorites – which have faded into smudgy, grayed-out oblivion over the years. 

Sometimes life just doesn’t get any better than flexaboarding with cousins on Grampa’s old board.
