From the angle of the shots, it looks like you were climbing parallel to her. Was that the case?
I LOVE the sheer determination on her face.
Someday, if we can ever figure out how to store digital images better, she will look back on these and remember what it was like to have young muscles.

Thanks Bob No I was not climbing along side her. The pictures were taken from above where she started and then when she was parallel, Nui is a determined girl. She is now climbing across the ceiling at club. As you say "oh to have muscles like that again". :D

what a gutsy young lady, good on her, great shots for the family album
Thanks Foggy she normally has her nose in a book. I did not think she would take to it as she has.

Nice set, I like the expressions on her face. It's great to see children doing something other than sitting with their nose buried in a video game. Said as my nose is buried in a computer screen lol Congratulations to her for her successful climb.
Thanks momma deb. It is good to see them do things, her smaller sister does gymnastics, as they live in the country side they do a lot of out door things and beaching in the summer. Nui will also have her nose in a book as she is an avid reader as well. :D

Busted...is that you on your avatar? Quite a shot. :?:Great series with one spunky adventurous young-un. My Mom was first to teach EMT training at a local tech college years ago. We used to have a saying..."Our Mom's not over-the-hill...she's on rappel!!"
