Wow — I want to fly through the air with the greatest of ease, too!

As a child living in Brooklyn, NY, we were fortunate to live close enough to Prospect Park that we could spend almost every afternoon there. My brother and cousin taught me to climb my first tree at the age of 6, and after that you couldn’t keep me out of them.

When our canopy tour was developed, ACE was in the heat of the season and I never got a chance to try it out. I had planned on taking my maiden voyage when things slowed down during October — didn’t happen!

I somehow managed to fall and break my left shoulder in three places, so that definitely ended that plan. Now it’s spring, the weather is getting nicer, my shoulder is healed, and I plan to get out there and soar through the trees instead of just climbing them.

Who’s with me? Who’s more afraid of heights than you are of white water rafting? Which one do you think is more fun?
