The family that plays together stays together has been something I always lived by. Good on ya'll for staying a close family. How many broken bones between the three of you?
When I was in China my girl friend and her daughter and a friend of hers and her daughter went to a really cool park that had a bunch of strength and balance obstacles that were a lot of fun until I got to the top of this wall. Loosing hand strength rapidly and fear climbing rapidly I launched myself the last two feet which was very difficult because of the rope angle. I sat up there for a while to rest and try to figure out a way down without a whole bunch of little pieces of wood doing some serious damage to my butt. I finally slithered down on my butt and held on to the rope to slow me down and I walked away unscathed. Then I found out that my girlfriend only took this photo so I have no proof.
I sat down to rest and my girlfriend's friend (daughter 13 so 30 something years old) scampered up and down the damn thing like she was a cat. To save face I went over to some young people that were watching and made sure they knew I was over 60.

I did not make a second attempt. I couldn't do it now because my bad back is making me fat. I have scientific "I think so" that tells me it can not be the Oreos.
