Fun Physical Preparations for the Alaskan Adventure

In addition to continuing remodeling work on the 1977 Travel Queen Home Vehicle, I have been happily practicing my slacklining skills.  Gibbon Slacklines gave us two lines for us to take on our Grease Home Vehicle (GHV) Alaskan Adventure!  I had never heard of a slackline before the super bowl halftime this winter and now I'm in love!  I practiced yesterday for an hour and a half and woke up this morning very aware of just about every muscle in my body.  I want everyone to know that this is HARD!!! But so much fun!!!!  I am excited for all of the slacklining that is in my very near future all on our drive to Alaska in T minus 3 weeks!  I also want to give a shout out to my incredibly comfortable Twist Tank Top by Lole in these pictures.

Don't look at the bottom of my foot.  Gross!

They say it is easier to balance with your arms up,
rather than out to the side.  Of course the dancer
that I am  has to make those arms elongated. :)

Held this just long enough to get the picture!

See Ava the doggy?  See the stick just below the
slackline that she really wishes I would throw for her?
