    Quite certain that is a tower in eastern ND and given the wind we have here coupled with the fact that bugger is WAY high...NOPE!

    FYI - one of our towers is (or at least was) the tallest tower in the world at one time at 2,300+ feet. Folks have been known to parachute off of them on occasion but that little trick tends to be frowned upon.

    In a heart beat. I don't fear heights. Besides I suspect snakes are few and far between way up there like that.

    I wish I could. But, I've reached an age where I don't even like going up two stories on a ladder to check my own gutters.

    No way. Like Hank, I don't even like climbing ladders.

    If God intended me to be that high, I'd have been born with wings.
