Let me start by saying, climbing anything, up a hill or mountain, never works out well for me. I climbed a volcano on my first trip to Guatemala and all I can say is, the only way I would do it again is if I was promised that Jesus was waiting for me at the top, and even then I would might have to think about it. Then last year I climbed Mt. Zion in Egypt. Everyone promised me that it would be an experience of a life time, I should have taken that as a warning! We climbed it at 4:00 am in the dark! I was told that the sun rise would be breath taking, it was, and the journey down the mountain was also memorable. I came to understand why Moses was so angry when he got down from Mt. Zion only to find the Isralites worshiping a golden cow, I would have been mad too. Today, I did my first zip line and it began with a steep climb . . . uphill!!! This time though the the journey was worth it!! I need to work on my "breaking." But over all, I loved it!!! Tomorrow, we get back to the houses and work on putting the finishing touches before we do the dedications!!
