EDWARDSBURG, Mich. -- In Edwardsburg, Michigan this summer, a family built a giant-sized slip 'n' slide on a hill in their backyard.
Travis Perkins and his daughter Hailer Callahan are next-door neighbors, and after recent heavy rains caused a mud pit in the backyard area of their homes, they decided to bring in some tarps, dish soap, pool floats, and tubes so that all of the neighborhood kids would have somewhere fun to go and cool off.
