Flying

Sometimes I’m a slacker on the Blog writing, and the last couple weeks have been that way. I did go para-gliding a few days ago, and that was a lot of fun.

The experience was pretty great, you have a large parachute attached to the back of your pilot. He hooks onto your harness, and you pretty much have a backpack that turns into a seat up in the air. You run off of a cliff and kind of jump off as the air catches you.

Suddenly you are hundreds and hundreds of feet off of the ground sitting in a little chair while the pilot is behind you using two handles to steer the chute up and down and to the right or left--Using air-currents to keep you up in the air.

I’m not going to lie, it was pretty awesome. So beautiful up there, and you just feel like you are floating around.

I had a friend who was able to get us the hook-up for half off so it was totally worth it. Not quite as good as being able to fly, but almost.

Any of you want to sponsor me for about $7,500? I'm thinking of buying my own parachute and taking up the sport. :) come on, i've got to have a rich friend out there dying for an opportunity to support a young (or not so young) entrepreneur. Let me know.
