You definitely broke it in because I certainly wasn't stretching it!!

Saw the coolest whipper ever, by Noah on Tuna Town!! Big credits should really go to Belayer Brian Arnold!

Saw a cool lead this past weekend, too! This guy led Gung Ho in a relatively short amount of time and proceeded to downclimb it on lead. I've never seen such a thing before.

Oh! I love Strict 9! 'Course I'm a scaried butt TR/belay 'ho! If I stand at the undercling and work it out in my head, I can step out and up and feeeeel sooooo good. Otherwise, I fall as usual, hee, hee! I'd be honored to climb with you! We'll have so much fun!

I'm going to get the overhanging stuff this summer! I am dammit!
What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

I really, really liked Strict 9! Maybe you had more trouble on it since you're shorter than me, Puzo. (By the way it was entertaining to listen to you while i was on another route climbing). I had lots of fun climbing cracks that day!

For the gym rats out there - I had a kick ass two hour session at LR tonight. Maybe a couple short rests, but mostly just pulling down on a bunch of cool problems. Never took my shoes off.

Strict 9 is a great crack, Wall of denial is a great crag. I enjoy the hike to wall of denial, it is so awsome back there. I am wanting to do the routes on the dragons wing, was up there on Saturday but everything was soaking wet. So much water was running down the wall you could drink it, ( just ask Sarah ) The route Blister in the sun looked awsome...can't wait to send it...

Yeah that wall that was all wet looked awesome...would like to go back. And i DO have a pic of Sarah DRINKING off the wall!! haha. GREAT HIKE?!! ARE YOU CRAZY PIRATE! haha, just kidding, it was an adventure that's for sure. I love hikes that make you feel like you should rope up....

Strict 9 was definitely cool - would liked to have had more time there Saturday...

Sarah, glad you enjoyed my linguistic entertainment....swearing really is an artform....

Bet you couldn't tell if the screams were from me or Joe though!! haha.
