With lots of tears, determination and encouragement, Laura made it to the top of the REI rock wall again. She made it 2 years ago, then had a few bad climbs where she freaked herself out bad enough to not try again for a year. But she wanted to give it another go last weekend. She got stuck up there crying, so an REI associate climbed up to help bring her down, but she was stubborn enough to push the rest of the way up and ring the bell. There was a group of tween girls having a birthday party waiting their turn to climb and they were so supportive and cheered for Laura as she made it to the top. Outdoorsy people are so nice, even as tweens.
And its a testament to how many times they've been on the MOA roller coaster that they know where the camera is and can time it just right for a silly face.
