Bungee Girl

Posted by Viewfinder (Bradenton, FL, United States) on 7 March 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Saw this young lady working (while everybody else was playing) at the Cortez Seafood Festival. She was in charge of the bungee jumping concession (really it was a big rubber band thing, not a pure bungee jump from high up). No hat either, but behind her sunglasses and mildly bored expression lie her true dreams and aspirations.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL AT AM3. I am out and probably away from the computer all this week. We are headed to north Georgia to spend Thanksgiving with our son and his wife and her family. I hope everyone who celebrates this holiday has a wonderful day, filled with turkey and gratitude for every blessing. And those who do not, I hope will remember to count their blessings and be thankful. Packing and getting the SUV all set for the drive today; we leave very early Tuesday morning and plan to return sometime Sunday.
