Heights

Today's colletion, Tuesday, May 7: Heights. So if you're scared of heights, don't hit my Tumblr today.

Speaking of fears, I'm putting together a post about phobias and what it's like to be someone with a phobia. Watch this space.

That first one nearly got me dizzy sitting in my chair!
Love it, though! I love panorama and vista shots like those; I just can't stand to go very close to the edge!
I've done jobs that allowed me to get used to doing that sort of stuff enough that I got used to the feeling, but that familiarity goes away fast!

I knew a woman who painted houses for a living. She could do straight-knee toe touches, fast, while on the very top step of a ladder (you know, the one that says "This is not a step").

Dean would be able to do that. When he drove semi, he normally pulled a grain trailer. He would walk around the trailer on that 3 inch ledge. Slipped off one day, flipped a somersault and landed on his feet, the nimble little shit. Wish I had that spatial awareness!
