Today was the Fall Festival in Pratt and the kids had a blast climbing the rock wall that the Army provided. The pic below is Carly getting cinched up to climb. I'm such a chicken when it comes to stuff like this. She is never scared at all. I don't want her to be a scaredy cat like me, but sometimes I wish she would have a little more apprehension about stuff. It makes for a safer life and doesn't put as many gray hairs in Mom's head, either. The army reps had a nice table set up with anti-tobacco literature. The kids all seemed to find it very interesting. They had a prop that looked like a pack of cigarettes. You could pull one of the cigs out of the pack and the middle of it was a clear plastic cylinder showing the amount of tar in a cigarette. Most of the kids were really grossed out, so hopefully it will stick with them if they are ever tempted to succumb to peer pressure.

I've always wanted to try one of those climbing walls but never had the nerve either. Good for her!
