I had a passion for climbing as a youngster, a tree or steep slope. One day, I spotted a bird’s nest high up a Guava tree. Curious, I climbed up, but the nest was way up. I gave up not because of the height but I felt huge ants crawling up my legs and arms. I stepped down quickly on a twig. but it snapped to my horror! I grabbed a stronger bough and screamed for help. My Dad heard me, ran to the tree with a ladder and brought me down. I knew then that was my last climb

The joys of tree climbing but as least he/she managed to get down, with Dad's help. Hope the ants didn't bite too hard. Comments are closed.
