2 zip lines have been added! Bring your first aid kits!
Funny.
I kind of had my doubts about "real" zip lines being up when we got there. I should know better to question cowboys, coal miners, and ranchers. Those zip lines were for real.
And when I asked my Uncle Paul if (quote from Jeff himself), "That zip line could hold up his fat butt," he responded in language I'd expect from him, "Hell yes. That line can hold 250 lbs." So off Jeff went, zipping down the line. I was impressed that he could practically flip himself over as he was coming down.
But Kurtis' pull-ups while he was zooming down the line was even more impressive. Show off.
Pearl had a blast on the zip lines. She went up and down, up and down about 300 times. She loved it! Although you'd question that when you heard her screaming "catch me" with this terrified look on her face as she neared the post. Apparently hitting the post - even with a mattress wrapped around it - hurt those first couple of times. But she did awesome!
Kimmy and I each took a turn. And while it looks like I hit the ground, I assure you that I barely cleared the ground. Barely. I need to start working out. Even my dad tried it... just not when the camera was out.
Not to be left out of any fun, Cole pointed and said, "uhhh" over and over until I finally took him over to the zip line. But he wasn't satisfied with just watching. So Jeff helped Cole grab hold of the zip line and the next thing I know, Mr. Muscles was hanging on by himself! It was impressive for a little guy. He wouldn't let go for anything and wanted to go again and again.
