Don't look down.

Today, my daughter and I went to run some errands and we had planned to go for a little walk around the square for some decoration sightings and a picture or two with the Zoli-inspired Santas.   It took a little bit of a detour; however, when we were passing the pedestrian bridge installed earlier this year over one of the main roads here in town.   I asked her if she wanted to jump out and walk across it since we really had nothing else to do today.   Of course, walking across this wide span seemed like a great idea to me at the time, but when I got to the middle of the bridge, my incessant fear of heights and the swaying of the structure from the passing cars underneath caused me to quickly turn around and high tail it to the beginning.   I thought about the times when I attempted a cross of the swinging rope bridge at Fall Creek Falls, going all the way to the end of the Infinity Room at the House on the Rock, or not even walking 1/4 of the way up the Shelby Pedestrian Bridge in Nashville.   For some reason, high bridges are not my cup of tea.   Not so with my daughter, though, as she enjoyed standing there watching the cars pass underneath.   She went from side to side checking out the traffic and decided not to do any posing for me, so I just had to wing it on this one.   That was actually a pretty good accident, as I believe I caught some really good moments with her just horsing around.   It helped that I was on solid ground and had to live the experience through her eyes and the laughter she made when playing around.
