Gone to Indian Creek for some desert red sandstone and the attempts to climb routes that have kicked my behind when i was fit. now i wonder what ordeals will be like when i do get on them after 3.5 months on the ice. crazy!!
i did get on them and i did okay. i was preatty happy about that. amazing!! i guess technique one will always have. endurance, strength and mental game will always come back. it felt good to be out and not to be working. it felt good to be in the sunshine. it felt wonderful being with awesome friends from home. it's also strange to miss the chapter of my life that i have come to accept as the adventure portion of my life. weird.
in the silloutte of delicate arch
i get emails from friends from the ice and those where are still on the ice. it's amazing how a small place can expand a person's horizons.

then, i came back home for only a day and drove down to Monterey for meeting and few days of visiting the bay area.

over all.....great visit. got to see old friends and new baby.
now i'm sitting in my living room, protected from the blustery weather outside (i think winter is coming...) just marveling at where all of our experiences and lives have brought us. oh yeah...also enjoying a hot cuppa. :D
