Tom,
? ? ?I feel for you. My height phobia seems to have gotten worse with age.? The worse for me is climbing that extension ladder to do second story maintenance.? The bounce and the being more then 8 feet up get me every time.? For the most part I have been able to control the fear factor and get the required maintenance done.
? ? ?The worst episode was when visiting Paris and my wife decided we had to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower.? Well I swallowed my heart and promised myself I would stay away from the edge once I got to the top.? ?What happens, they load us into the elevator like sardines? my back is pressed to the exterior wall and all I have between myself and all those riveted I-beams is what feel like some 1/8" Plexiglas.? My heart was beating so fast by the time I made it to the top that I had to find a corner with walls on two sides and just try to relax in a squatting position before I could convince my legs to hold my weight by them selves.
? ? ?Did get some great pictures and going down I made sure to get in the exact middle of the elevator?
