Hi everybody!

This spring has been an amazing one for me! I raised funds for cancer research and participated in the Canadian Cancer Society's Relay for Life on June 10 and just this past weekend went on a treetop trekking and ziplining adventure! I NEVER would have imagined myself doing these types of things even just a year ago. I bought a bike last summer and even though I was able to ride it last summer I wasn't able to go near as far as I can now! There are so many things for me to do now that I just can't wait to get out there and do it all! This life is wonderful! When asked if WLS was worth it, I say "HELL YEAH! I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat if it meant I had to!"

Me and some of the team at Relay for Life. Our team name was Puny Portion Pyjama Party! (Thanks to Samtq, aka Sue, for the name!)

Treetop trekking and ziplining! (I'm the one with the green top and black pants.)

Thanks smiley_k! I'm getting a little too adventurous though - fell off my bike yesterday and scraped my knee pretty bad. Feel like I'm 10 years old again! LOL

You are amazing. Look at how tiny you are.   Ziplining sounds interesting. Would you do it again. I know I have done things I never dreamed of. Hoping to do skydiving in Sept.  Thanks for sharing the pictures

You're too kind! I would definitely go ziplining again! In fact, we ARE going again in the fall!
