    I agree with you. I've been to the one at the Grand Canyon, but there is one at the House on the Rock in (don't remember if it's Minnesota or Wisconsin). I couldn't walk very far out into that room. I'd think the one at the Grand Canyon would be worse.

    Wow, Veronica! I think I'd need to wear a diaper if I tried skydiving, so probably better for everyone if I don't.

    Veronica, I think you did great! I am amazed at people who can do this without becoming a basket case - they would need to pry my fingers off of the person I came down with and probably give me drugs to calm me - I won't even climb on a ladder! Chairs are bad enough....Airplanes, oddly enough, don't bother me. Roller coasters, etc, nope. Can't pay me enough to ride one

    Zoom-zoom, I agree completely!

    Jumping out of a perfectly good plane!

    I was a "bit" nervous when both of my children celebrated my son's 21st birthday by going skydiving.

    When I asked him why they wanted to jump out of a perfectly good plane, he replied "the plane wasn't the good" he said he felt much better getting out of it! That was calming!

    Never so happy to get a call from my kids when they were done!

    How cool Veronica! This is something I've always wanted to do.
