More Ladder Lunacy

Photo #217

Y'know, sometimes more is better. Apple pie a la mode. Days of vacation. Hugs.

And sometimes more isn't better. When you tell someone, "Better get a ladder," you don't mean to get two of them.

That's a real safety precaution there at the base, having a guy holding the lower ladder. Maybe he's thinking, "I'm glad I won the rock-paper-scissors contest to see who had to climb up there."

What's scary about this scene is that the guy still can't get to the top. I'm hoping the third member of this crew isn't going to fetch yet another ladder. Pretty soon that guy at the top is going to need a parachute.
