Heather's leadership class took a field trip to Venture Academy where they were being challenged with the ropes course. Heather was so worried about this trip because one of her biggest fears is the fear of heights and she knew she would be testing this fear. I asked her to take along the camera and ask someone to take pictures of her. I was doubtful that she would actually even try this because she is of course my daughter and I am also really afraid of heights. This picture is of part of the course just so you can get an idea of how high this is!
And this next picture is my little Heather!
This is as high as she ended up going but that was incredible in my book! So so very proud of her for trying. And once you start climbing you can't climb back down you actually have to swing away from the pole and be lowered on that little tiny cable that you are attached too.
Here she is back safely on the ground.
Heather and Francis hanging out in one of the tires on the course!
And I have to point out that Holly was totally jealous and really wanted to go along on this little adventure because as we all know she is the total opposite of her twin and is quite the dare devil of the family! I told Holly we will check and see if we can go to this course so that she can give it a try too! Heather wants to go back again and try it again she says she feels more confident now. Also Heather told me she did the other thing at the course where as she put it you fly in the air like a squirel I so want to see a video of her doing that. Apparently another kid got it on video and is suppose to share it with Heather in the future.
Can you believe I actually posted twice in one day? LOL
Until Next time.
