Trey Davey was a little intimidated by this slide at Reid’s Orchard, and well he should be. It is the largest slide he’s encountered by far. From a raised platform standing 15’ above the ground, two large corrugated pipe tubes invited brave souls to slide down to the ground. Mommy volunteered to go down with Davey first to show him how safe it was. Her snap decision apparently didn’t account for the difficulty of a grown person climbing into the tube while holding a squirming toddler. Long arms, legs and gravity didn’t always work together, but determination yielded a successful first ride, and newly acquired confidence required many succeeding ones.
