Mountianfilm Festival and Saugatuck Dunes

Yesterday, (Wednesday, March 20) we went on a field trip to the Mountianfilm film festifal, were we watched 8 short films. After that, we went to the Saugatuck dunes, to hike (in the rain.)

My favorite film that we saw was one called “Surf the Line.” It was the same as surfing, except you were way in the air. You were on a surf board, that was secured to a zip line, that was probably more then 500 feet above ground, with a parachute. (There was also a person hanging on to a rope to the bottom of the surf board, to stabalize you, but that wasnt what it was about.) Somewere in the middle of the line, or were ever you felt comfortable, you would jump off and deploy your parachute and float safeley to the ground.

Now I will live differently because I will hopefully someday do this extreme sport, and be thinking about it.
