January 17th, 2014 - How to do a cartwheel

If the handstand lesson didn't give you an indication of my lack of balance, I don't know what will.  But in the spirit of this month, I wanted to try learn to overcome this and attempt another acrobatic feat.  A backflip would have resulted in paralysis, so that was out.  And my office removed the uneven bars in the conference room, so that was out too.  So instead, I decided to ask Julee Mitsler to teach me how to do a cartwheel.

Those used to be a lot easier to do when I was little (I also didn't have an alcohol enhanced belly when I was little, so I guess that's understandable).  But I left today unscathed, and that's all I can hope for when going ass over tea kettle.  A little practice (and a lot less belly), and I should be getting the hang of those in no time!



Other things I learned/looked up:
1) When going to a Wailers concert, one cannot expect that the band will find the stage on time (discovered through personal research)
