Back from Lake Tahoe - and back to the usual routine tomorrow. 

One of the highlights of the Tahoe trip was the Tahoe Treetop Adventure Park. This place has a bunch of obstacle courses where you stress about--I mean, "skillfully navigate"-- rope swings, wobbly bridges, swinging logs, tightropes, cargo nets, horizontal climbing walls, etc, to get from one tree platform to another. Zip lines were often part of the obstacle courses.

The zip lines were fun. A couple of the high tightrope walks/bridges were not so fun. 

We were there for two and a half hours and I almost totally freaked out twice. Each time, I was about 40 feet above ground, thinking: "I'm tethered to this wire, so I won't fall to my death. I'll just fall to my humiliation." (If you fall, you just dangle there, yelling for a staff member to rescue you. Thankfully this didn't happen!)

Overall, it was a lot of fun. But if we go back there, I know there's one course I won't do. (It was called "Rings"--a Black diamond course--and it was stressful.)
