I can't believe I did it. On my trip to Arizona, I did a zip line! WHAT A RUSH! I finally did it. I made it my goal for me when I had my gastric sleeve almost most five years ago. I did the zip line on 01/26/2015. The name of the zip line is called "Superstition Zipline". It's at Goldfield Ghost Town in Apache Junction, Arizona. I can't wait to do it again when I get the chance. I'll never forget that day.

I still can't believe I did a zipline. Wow! Just...wow!

That is so awesome!!  I will be in Apache Junction for Valentine's Day.  I hope we have time because I would love to go do it!  I've never done anything like that.  It would be an awesome way to celebrate success!

Indeed awesome!! Cool. I hope you do have the time to do it, it's worth it. The zip line is $10.00 per person and the zip line ride has a two seater so up to two people can rid at the same time. I was told that if I go on for a 2nd ride it would be for $5.00, you can't beat that! I never done anything like that too until two days ago. I think the place is open from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (or 5:00 p.m.). Just to let you know that down the road from Goldfield Ghost Town there's a place called Superstition Mountains Museum, another great place to visit. The two places have their own website and Facebook page, that is if you want to look the two places up. It's a awesome way to celebrate success.
