Trying his hand-er-feet, at tight rope walking is Jim Lyons at Miro Park on Saturday. He was practicing for the walk out onto the wire strung over the park's lake where $100 was up for grabs. A few brave souls took the plunge and tried the walk and some literally took the plunge right into the lake! Including the expert funambulist "Grant the Wheel". The event was part of a promotion for the High Wire Flier ride.
