well I got laid off this morning. Oddly enough, I'm thrilled. It has been a helluva bad year+ in my company and it was time. So my last day of work is next Friday and I have 2 weeks with no kids. I will be at the Red that weekend and then am going on a roadtrip to NC for 4 days and then I have another week free. Is anyone up for a week of climbing easy stuff with a happy new (part-time) climbing bum, second week of July? I want to go to Cali but can't find cheap tickets (yet?). I was thinking the meadows would be nice if I can get out there, otherwise, something local - perhaps even a week at the Red would be perfect. Anyone free?
Lynne, you already know I'm in! I'll be back from Colorado on the 29th. I do have to work here and there, but I usually have 2-3 days off a week, usually Sundays, Mondays and Wednesdays. Can't wait to (partly) bum around with you!

Hey Lynne I am off for the Summer now. I will be out of town the rest of this week. And I will be in West Virginia rafting July 8-10. But, other then that maybe we could hook up and climb some.
The year before last we made it from Cincinnati in about 22 or 23 hours, with an hour or so stop for dinner in Lincoln or Omaha. We left around 6 AM and pulled into Vedauwoo around 2 or 3 in the morning local time. Definately worth the drive if you can stay for a while.
Well I'm considering all options! Vedauwoo is one of the places I have been wanting to get to, but I don't know about spending all that time in the car... Yasmeen, if you are able to take a full week off, let's talk! Otherwise it's looking like a week at the Red, bumming partners and leftover pizza. Which actually doesn't sound bad at all!
