Tarzan Swing! from Moogie and Vimeo.
I've been slowly adding pictures from our vacation and since I have a little bit of free time on my hands, I thought I would add some more.
I'm trying out Vimeo for the first time for my videos. So far, it's ridiculously easy to use. I've used YouTube (nothing to write home about, but good if you want a basic program) and Dropshots (I've run out of free space, but I like the service quite a bit). It has become painfully obvious to me that I am going to have to fork over real money to pay a service to host them, but before I do, I want to look around and see what's out there. Suggestions are welcome.
I had previously written about the Tarzan Swing, which was by far, the most popular thing in the "World's Largest Pool" (remind me to get Uncle Mikie to send us the panoramic picture he took so I can post it - hey wait a minute, he is supposed to be reading my blog so it best be in my inbox by the time I get back from dinner tonight).
Where was I? Oh yes, the Tarzan Swing. No, I did not try it. Why do you ask?
The above video is Chickie, trying it out for the first time. The next one is Meelie. Pretend you don't notice the hesitation. Later she told me she was "just wanting to make sure I had my camera ready."

Now and again, everyone needs a little help. There's nothing like teamwork to tackle the most daunting of tasks.

Hello, Michele sent me! Wow, that looks so fun! (For kids, I mean. :)) I paid for the premium service at Flickr and am happy with that, though I just have pics, not videos.

Moogie, I like the "It better be in my inbox by the time I get back from dinner tonight". I want to know if it was ;) *giggles*
That swing does look cool but you wouldn't get me on that thing at all.
I am now seriously thinking of moving from blogger unless i can get some sneaky coding to work (which I need to actually write :P) so I can do more than just "colours", although saying that I should just keep to the K.I.S.S. principle should I not!

Oh boy does that look COOL! I bet the kids were worn out by the end of the day.

I wonder if anyone ever lands on the trampoline?
Looks cool, but not for me.
Here from M.
Nice videos.

That's a pool?!?! I thought it was a lake! To answer your question - ya, I'd do the Tarzan swing, why not? It wouldn't be the craziest thing I've ever done... not even close.
Michele sent me on this hot summer afternoon,
Mike

I think they are really brave girls. I think the video thing is the sort of thing Naomi wants to find our about to film her humming birds. Maybe you could advise her. Naomi aka Old Old Lady of the Hills. Here again from Michele and thank you for your visit. Have a good week - it's bed-time for me.

Thanks for stopping by, and for the well wishes, L appreciates them. I will let you know the results of it all...
Sort of here from Michele's today, but it was she who sent you to me!!
