Sue and her 50 new things before she turns 50

My adventures on the way to 50, while trying 50 new things I've never tried before. Heading to 50 fast and furiously, no holds barred, take no prisoners and most importantly trying to survive it all!

(#6) The Alpine Slide, what a ride! & (#7) Oktoberfest in Big Bear too!







Last Sat 10/30 the kids & I went up to Big Bear & rode the Alpine slide (# 6). It was a blast! My grandson kept saying "go again, go again". Then the 3rd time up the ski lift paused for about a min., since I did have the 3 y/o with me at the time I decided we'd had enough fun for one day. I had "emergency rescue" flashing through my brain & us on the 6 o'clock news. It didn't really happen of course, but getting stuck, even momentarily was enough to put a little panic into Grandma.
We also did Oktoberfest (#7) in Big Bear. My grandson & I danced to the Umpah pah band. He was so funny, he wanted to dance every dance & when he got tired thought it was a good idea for me to carry him & keep on dancing. Luckily his Mom & I tag teamed & she relieved me every 3 or 4 dances. I'd definately do both again. Especially with a fun guy like Isaac! I wonder if he'll still want to dance with me in another 10 or so years.
Tomorrow is my 49th Birthday & I'll be jumping out of an Airplane. If I don't post anything after this, then it's been nice knowing you & hopefully you'll all remember me fondly, Sue
