My New Favorite Activity

Slacklining!

Many of my friends know that I am the type of person that is perfectly content just chilling at home watching a good movie or playing a video game. But recently I have found myself venturing outdoors. I have always enjoyed hiking but working nights for a year and a half kind of made me not want to go outside. The sun would hurt my eyes or I would be awake while the rest of the city was sleeping.
A good friend of mine invited me to go slacklining at the park with him and a few other friends. For those of you who don't know what slacklining is, it is a bit like tight rope walking except you are walking on some webbing that is two inches wide and has a lot more give. It will swing side to side while you are walking and when you first start your body isn't used to it so your leg shakes like crazy.
 I went and let me just say after a that first day I became hooked. I wasn't even good at it. I couldn't stand up on it for a while and then getting to the point of walking seemed like it would never happen. But as time has passed and I have continued to practice at it I can now walk on it and have started to try and learn some tricks on it. It isn't easy and can sometimes be really frustrating. But I love it. I have made some new friends and have started spending my days off work outside at a park. Life is good.

We set up three lines at the park. It was the fun triangle.
