Earl Ziplining

Not since Costa Rican jungles has Earl ziplined. His chance came at our camp where there awaited a pole to climb and a zipline to scurry across. No macahs, no jungle canopy, just the scream as he took off! Instead of going to another wooden landing to be caught by a native, he swung to the other end, came back on the zipline, to be caught by an employee on a ladder!
Just to let you know that Earl was the only brave one of the eight of us working here this week!
In Costa Rica, you hike to the top zipline. Chris and Shahela were happy eating termites on the way and looking at poison frogs! Then you "fly" to seven or eight landings. Earl was proud he could climb the pole AND do the dangerous feat!

One more day and we are on to another beach site by ourselves with the final destination being Mt. Rainier. I attend another "Death and Dying" conference at Rogue Valley Medical Center on September 26,27 and then "home" to Klamath Falls and KOA for our doctor appointments. Then heading south to Tucson where we will work at a homeless shelter from November 2-19 and then another month in Tucson for Christmas.

We send love to all...you might consider being a "Follower" because then you will know when we have posted another blog!
