Earlier this month, fifteen members of my family, including eight grandchildren, vacationed in the Smoky Mountains near Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
Two of my adult grandsons presented me with a “Zip Line Challenge.”
I am a retired judge, soon to be 76 years of age and a two time cancer survivor. I accepted the challenge.
At the last moment, the two grandsons chickened out and were replaced by two much younger grandchildren. We had a BLAST zip lining down that mountain!! Grandpa Bob still has what it takes!! LIVE STRONG!! Smiles did abound. These are unforgettable moments in time! All smiles!
Have a Bright Spot to share? Send it to Managing Editor Julia Lerner (lernerj@denison.edu). Tell us about the moment that made you smile in under 200 words, and try to include a photograph. We’ll add it to our growing list of Bright Spots on TheReportingProject.org!
