WALNUT SHADE, Mo. -- A zipline attraction opens Saturday just north of Branson. As Paul Adler would say, "we took this assignment to new heights," and someone ended up hanging tough.
As you now know, I'm not fond of heights but I decided to face my fear. The wind sure didn't help my shaky legs but I finally did it.
Adler, on the other hand, was pumped, even spinning to see the high-flying sights on our treetop tour. Then Mother Nature made it more challenging, and one of us didn't make it across.
Did our guides jinx us from the get-go? We gave them training during an unexpected rescue. Just feet from the landing platform, Adler lost steam.
Adler tried for the rescue rope but missed. He was sliding back. My trusty sidekick was stuck, dangling above the rocky ravine.
"Hang on Paul! We're coming to get you!" I hollered.
