Day 20- Rock Climb!

Why do people climb rocks? The same reason you eat your mother-in-laws cooking; the intoxicating thrill of cheating death! My son was coming to visit from college so I bought him a "learn to climb" lesson from an adventure company. The night before the climb we realized he could not go as he had just had a finger operated on. It was too late to cancel so I went in his place. The climb lasted several hours till I got "Elvis Leg", when your legs turn to jelly and get all shaky. Did my life flash before my eyes? Yes, more than once, but your never more alive than when facing death. I can not wait to do it again!
