Ok... it was summer break and my moms, my sister, and I decited to go day-camping, because over at Colorado some of there nights pretty much go below zero. Also in Colorado, there are these bolders that are HUGE! Think of 8 (yes eight) normal size school buses stacked on top of each other... and those are the small ones! cool
Well, when my moms where cooking lunch, my sister and I decited to clime a medim size bolder, which would be at least... 3 to 5 storys high. When we past the top and ready to go down, I saw this rock slide that cut off a little drop on some "bushes". Stupidity took over and I was on the top of this slide ready to scoot down. Well, since my sister was with me I told her to stay where she was so I can see if that was a safe path. With my knees to my chess to slow the speed I slowly scooted down. When I was half way down I heard some thing sliding behind me... guess who it is? rolleyes
My sister thought I was stealing all the fun, so she decited to follow me. As I turned around to tell her to go back my speed insceased... apperedty this slide rock been here for a long time, and was weathered so bad that practicaly smooth as a new marbel ball! And I was sliding really, really fast screaming "NO GRIP! NO GRIP!" over and over. As I came near the edge those "bushes" I saw earlyer was actually the tops of trees and I was on a freaken cliff! eek
Well, you can only guess what I was thinking at that moment... so to keep thing short... I flew over a pine tree with some scraches on my back and arms, hit the second tree that gave me a goose egg on my head, tumbled and broke some branches, you would think I was in gymnastics.... (but thankfully didn't break anything), did a small free fall to only land on a rock with my shoulder, which knocked me in a right position to land on my butt on a bed of rocks.
When my sister heard all the crashes and sudden sceaming finally ended, she paniced and tryed to slide over to see if I was all right. At this point all her sliding and screaming draged me out of shock and I told her to take the long way around.
I had sooooo many cuts, bruses and some minor sore spots on my head and butt, it took me a while to get up and start walking; when my sister finally showed up she was really pale and she had tears coming out of her eyes! It was like I died at the spot! But I just walked/limped to her and flicked her on the nose and ordered her to lead the way.
as you can see I'm a lucky dare devil! pirate But thats not the best part! When we came back I staged my self so perfictly that it seemed that nothing happen at all.... until they found the blood that is! wink whee
