A 100+ Year Tradition Continues In My Crazy Family

When I was a kid, my mother told me that my grandfather would run barefooted, immediately after the first snowfall of the season. This would have started over 100 years ago.

I started doing it when I was a kid. And then when my boys were old enough, I told them about it, and they had to do it. With the advent of social media and smartphones, we now have a record of it every year.

And my son David and girlfriend video'd his run.
