Rock climbing is so much easier when you are watching someone else do it. |
|
Last night, with my daughter's C.A.P. troop, it was much easier for me to shout,"NO! Put your right foot farther over. No! Put your foot where your hand is! Hey, you got it now! It is far tougher to be the one getting yelled at...although, falling into a pile of rubber is a lot of fun. I just don't recommend hitting the wall face first...
....I don't think I'll be doing that again anytime soon. :hi:

I LOVE climbing, and I don't get to do it nearly enough anymore. How did your daughter enjoy it?

4. She liked it okay. She is not "built" to get too close to the wall, which |
|
makes it a bit difficult. But she was with her friends and they always have fun. :hi:

One of the disadvantages of being a female climber. Usually we're more flexible though, to make up for it :) Glad they had a good time, hope you are recovered soon!

3. I climbed over at the Gunks in NY state a few......... |
|
years ago. Before I climbed I was deathly afraid of heights but after a 2 pitch climb I was foreever cured. All I needed was confidence in my feet staying put. I absolutly loved it but Alas, I decided to retire from climbing that very day. LOL About the only thing I haven't tried yet is jumping out of a perfectly good airplane.

|
;) You don't see me doing anything really death defying. This is about it for me. :hi:
