See you on the other side.

We did the bridge walk at the New River Gorge Bridge yesterday! I spent the morning downloading steampunkish music and then the afternoon inching around on rusted metal and bolts and catwalks and the like.

It was awesome and a little scary. All the traffic on the bridge shook the whole structure and the sound was just a roar all the time. And the wind was blowing and the mist was rising and there were falcons cruising around us. Pretty awesome! It took two hours because the group ahead of us was in no hurry, so we spent a long time clinging to the swaying rails just waiting for the herd to move on.

Also, I haven't posted the last two 31_days fics I've done, so here they are: A Last Unicorn and a Watchmen one.

That's so cool! And the bridge and location are gorgeous. The shaking would have scared me; I'd have been clinging to the sides for dear life, lol.

There was some clinging going on, I'll admit! But it was beautiful. They do a full moon walk with no lights and I think that would be scarier.

Whoa - that looked awesome. Not sure how well I'd do with somethiing like that; heights and I aren't friends, but with that much structure surrounding, I might be able to enjoy it %D

It really wasn't that bad, but heights don't bother me much. If I could've walked at my own pace across it, the shaking would've been alarming at all, but we had to keep stopping.
