Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
Egads..........is that really a baby? I've never seen that type of 'sled'.
Is she next going to walk right into the 'traffic'? LOL
19 Mar 2008 7:56am
@Judy: The real thing....lol Judy, I'm sure the baby is safely strapped in, but I don't think I could do it ;)
@Sujit Sudhi: Thanks a lot Sujit :)

@MJ: Thanks a lot MJ, it's bound to go away, it is, after all, officially Spring ;)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
Walking across that icy road could be more hazardous carrying that little one; this is a very creative approach to saving a spill. Hats off to this intrepid mom.
19 Mar 2008 12:03pm
@Viewfinder: Yes it makes sense VF and it's very unusual, but I wouldn't be able to...however, I would buy very non-slippery boots ;)
[terrorkitten] from Bath, United Kingdom
still snowing? PLease tell me it has stopped! And there was me in short sleeves in Crete ;)
19 Mar 2008 12:08pm
@[terrorkitten]: Of course it is...rub it in, why don't you ;)
Michael Rawluk from Prince George, Canada
You still have a couple of inches of snow there :-)
19 Mar 2008 2:28pm
@Michael Rawluk: More like a dozen feet of it, arrghh, lol it will go away, eventually, thanks a lot Michael :)
Daroru from Amagasaki, Japan
I... don't know what I'm looking at... sorry, I'm not from snow country. Is that a baby? What ...
19 Mar 2008 2:39pm
@Daroru: lol it's weird even to my eyes Daroru, yes it's a baby on a board, strapped in ...unusual for sure :)
Reza from Montreal, Canada
LOL! Very nice shot Lorraine. I think he/she is having fun .
19 Mar 2008 2:46pm
@Reza: Thanks Reza, I'm sure he/she were...not sure about the Mom, when my son was a baby I had to have him up front, up close to my heart...
Janice Thomson from Courtenay BC, Canada
Unique way to handle a baby in weather conditions like that - fantastic pic mon amie - the reds really stand out!
19 Mar 2008 4:05pm
@Janice Thomson: Unusual indeed, thanks a lot dear Janice :)
Ina from Krugersdorp, South Africa

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada
THIS is so great, Lorraine!! The combination of the red coat and red sled is perfect for focusing the eye but the framing is perfect, too. FABulous shot!!
19 Mar 2008 6:23pm
@amy: Thanks a lot Amy, it was an unusual site indeed ;)
Behrooz Sangani from Tehran, Iran

A great shot of this very resourceful mum. The red of the coat and sledge against the snow is wonderful. Nice one Lorraine.

@MaryB: Glad you enjoyed, thanks a lot MaryB ;)
Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
Trop mignon !!. Dommage que l'on ne voit pas mieux le BB, au début je n'avais pas compris ( eh oui, pas l'habitude de ce genre de transport chez nous...). J'étais surtout attirée par le rouge de la veste assortie à la luge. Et puis j'ai vu le titre...
Demain sur mon site une petite photo spéciale dédicace pour les canadiens...
19 Mar 2008 11:02pm
@Evelyne Dubos: Bonjour Evelyne, je n'étais pas sure moi-même le premier instant, lol Merci beaucoup et je vais alloir ça...:)
@Stunner: Thanks a lot Stunner :)
@Betsy Barron : www.thebetsy.com: Isn't it hilarious, thanks alot Betsy B ;)
tyan from Singapore, Singapore
LOL,what a lovely pun title! WOW!But my first thought though,was whether the adult walking may cause some snow/ice to splash to the baby,are there higher sleds available?:) i heard spring is coming,hang in there babe!:)
20 Mar 2008 1:45am
@tyan: I know, she must be very sure, I know that when my son was a baby, I couldn't even hook him up to my back, I had to have him upfront close to my heart...although I'm sure she knows what she's doing!!! :)
Thanks Babe, Spring??? not sure I remember that word lol
Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
Is there a baby there????? It has no head? What a thrill!
20 Mar 2008 12:00pm
@Japanalia: lol that's because you're looking at it horizontally instead of vertically, switch your perception, you'll see ;)
@Ras: Indeed lol
