Summer Slump
7/25/2008 3:58:13 PM
I have been very busy. I will get back to posting more, soon.
It has been a fast and busy summer. I just returned from a week at the beach. It was wonderful. I rode jet skis. I saw lots of dolphins, sting rays, and a few sharks.
There was actually a shark that swam around me and Zander. We were in a shallow area about 2 feet deep and it came between us and the beach. It was around three feet long. I am glad that it was not hungry for me or Zander.
A day later, we watched a man and woman fishing from the balcony. The shark came close to them a number of times. They had bait. CRAZY!
On Friday night, I rode the Sky Coaster with my youngest daughter. We were strapped into slings. They hooked up to cables. Then, we were pulled up around 100 feet. To be honest, 100 feet is higher than it looks from the ground.
The guy running the attraction said, "Three, two, one, fly."
My daughter pulled the rip-cord and we flew. I will admit that it was fun. The hardest part is going up. You do not think that it will ever stop.
More tomorrow. Take care.
