Zip-Line Time

What does basketball have to do with zip-lining?

Not much.

Except while we were waiting our turn...

they had a hoop, they had a ball,

and we let neither go to waste.

Then it came time to suit up and practice.

And without further ado, they marched back to the launching tower.

The instructors are in blue. 

After a short safety check.....

it was zipping time.

Their first stop was a platform in an old cypress tree.

Very Robin Hood.

But the fun part, I'm told, was getting to the next platform.

Sarah and I stayed on the ground.

You have to be 10 to zip, so we'll be doing this another time.

We found a little swimming pool.....

and cooled off a bit.

Before long everyone returned

with plenty of stories to tell.

Cypress Valley Canopy Tours.

We came.

We played ball.

We zipped.

No one fell.

I'm loving it.
