One of the things that often helps me is to climb with people better than myself (which is easy to do out here). Seeing how they approach a problem, and the different skill sets they use often opens up my climbing a bit.

I have been climbing for about 18 months and I'm not climbing much harder routes then I was 6 months ago, but I'm climbing everything better along with developing gear knowlage.

What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

I see they are still lopping off mountains in Eastern Kentucky. Electricity isn't cheap.

Doesn't that mess up the flavor? I know it's heresy to suggest that any American drink a beverage that isn't ice cold, but some things are meant to be drank at certain temps.

Nah, you can drink bourbon hot, cold, warm, straight, mixed, or any other permutation and it is still good... no, "divine" might be a better word.
