A photographer really can't go wrong when a bright blue sky is your background.
I
spent some time today at Holy Apostles School, New Berlin, where
students and staff participated in High Interest Day. Activities
included football, knitting, theater, bubble-blowing, fencing, French
cooking, science experiments, and, of course, a rock wall.
Adventure
Rock, located in Pewaukee, provided the
climbing wall. These kids zipped up the wall faster than I could lift
my camera. I tried rock climbing a couple times when I was living down
in Australia, several years back. I think what made me check the sport
off my list as a potential passion was when the instructor told us a
horror story about forgetting to tie the rope to the stump at the top
of the cliff and ... well ... gravity isn't very forgiving to
forgetfulness.
