Sherman and the Way Back Machine ...

Well, I just got a nice dual-core multimedia PC !!!

And I was going through converting some old videotapes
and stumbled on this one. I think it was the tenth anniversary
ascent of Bedtime, but I am a bit FOGgy (Freaking Old Guy!)
on the actual details. I know it was Bill Wade on the video
camera (This thing was HUGE!!!), and David was my second.

Before you slam meh for "sewing up the crack", remember back
before bolts, the rock was the weak point, not the gear. More
people I know got hurt at RRG from mechanical rock failure than
any other kind of stupidity. I have ALWAYS been the WEAK SAUCE.

So here ya go ...

PS ... Also found and converted some Patrick Ellanger and John Bachar
stuff ... Those lads can freaking CLIMB

PPS ... After watching this, I went back down to Miguel's for Pizza
last weekend, man, has everyone gotten older !!!
