Leap Of Faith

Yesterday we went to Character Challenge Course Co..  or C4 to challenge ourselves and face some fears.

However, we didn't chose to do the course but skip right to the big two: "Leap of Faith" and "The 3G Swing."  This did mean, though, that we had to wait about 45mins for a group to get through the course first...which only gave us more time to "chicken out!"

We didn't though!

Despite kinda cool and rainy weather, and far too much thinking time, we decide to "go for it!"

Amanda and I took turns going first.  She went first on the LOF and I went first on the 3GS.

Yeah, we screamed...while you feel the pull of the swing while you are up there, as soon as you step off, there's nothing...you free fall until you think you are about to hit the ground only THEN does the swing PULL back.

As for the leap, the hardest part truly was just standing on the post WITHOUT the aid of the rope...trusting yourself and your BALANCE to do it.  Once standing, the view was quite nice! Though the bar did look FURTHER away than from the ground.

After kicking some adrenaline into our system we took some time to just relax at the cabin, fish, play some pinball, and just be.

Today we are preparing for Vegas, dotting the "i"s and crossing our "t"s.  Hoping for a smooth flight and not TOO hot weather to greet us.
