Small Moment
(not done)
As I looked down at the ground I suddenly realized how high up I was on the high ropes course at camp copneconick. I felt sweat running down my face as I stared at the hardest opstical I was about to do. As I grasped the rope I slowly climbed on to the first log. I inched forward very slowly as I reached for the second rope on the log. "Don't look down" I thought and in a panick I reached for the second logs rope but as I did so I nearly fell off. I leaned backwards hoping to regain my balance when I slowly slid onto the second log. I heaved a sigh as again I inched forward a little to fast and using the rope that kept me suspended in the air as a balance I took hold of the next rope. By this time it felt like I would never get off and even though the last log was next the ending platform seemed so far. I used my strength as I swung forward on the log I was on and grasping the rope of log number three. I leaned forward and firmly planting my foot on the final log I slipped and was sent dangling in the air held up by nothing but a weak brittle rope. As I tried to pull myself up onto to the third log I slowly tried to plant my feet on it again. When I finally did I stood still to scared to move.
