A Challenge Course, of Course

   On Saturday I met some of my adventure buddies for a climb on the 50' tower on the challenge course at Ironwoods park in Leawood. Three people could climb simultaneously, one on each side, and the route possibilities were endless! Naturally I chose the toughest (I have to maintain my reputation for crazy, after all), which included balancing on horizontal beams that teetered, the free-hanging "tootsie rolls" on the right, the loose cargo nets and the knotted ropes. I have to admit, I surprised even myself with what I was able to accomplish, and had a blast. It was fun belaying for and cheering on the others as they climbed, too. Todd & I got some friendly competition going & he & I were about equally matched.
You never know what you can do until you commit to diving in!
