    Default steps

    Hey Richard.

    Thank Cindy for getting that all together. We got a lot of help from alot of folks for a couple of days of the most intense building. Last two trips was just me and Cindy. We got steps and walkways and ramps all the way to the water. This morning I got the rails on the top deck and the first set of steps.
    I'll try to post a picture tomorrow.

    Hey Richard, I hope they work to cut down on any more falls! It won't cut down on the chance of DCS but at least we all won't be sliding down the hill in the mud anymore. Brian had to go on vacation before the hand rails were done. I hope to get someone to help me finish that before the workshop. It turned out to be the most work of any project I have done. Brian Williams worked his butt off! I may have lost a pound or two myself! I hope to see you at the workshop, we will have a booth for our exploration group. There will be guided dives to sign up for at both Hart and Alachua. Also Brian Williams is doing his yearly vertical workshop and we have guides lined up for dry caving. Busy, Busy..just started a new job at Shands also. All this stuff always happens all at once for some reason. Thanks for checking out the steps. Did you like the ramp? It's only temp. but I think it's cool. Later, Cindy

    I participated in the Grotto's Vertical Demo last year; I had ALWAYS wanted to try dry-land rope work, and it was the THRILL of a Lifetime. Brian and his Krewe ran a VERY Professional-grade mini-Fantasy Camp, and it was BEYOND expectations. HIGHLY recommended for anybody curious about this activity...
