We've been mostly sport climbing this summer, so some place like Rumney would be good, but I'm also thinking about the Daks or maybe the Gunks. Has anyone here bothered making plans yet?

With any luck I'll finishing the route I've been working on is what I'll be doing... oh, and drinking my face off at the Canmore Highland Games. There was some highland renaissance festival near Detroit last weekend. They were talking about it while I was driving through. Canmore games are one of the bigest in the area. Should be good. Hoping that i get in free again this year. They typically mistake me for a competator there. Just found out that after close inspection of photo's and the cliff my climbing partner is certain that we are only about 30m (or less) from the top of the cliff on the new route! Whoo! That means that next day out there we should be able to push it to the top, clean a bit of the to dangerous to clean while leading and seconding blocks on rap, and possibly do the full clean accent! the only pitch that we hanev't climbed clean yet is the one we're working on right now, pitch 4 (pitch 5 if you don't have a 70m rope). Why not just rap in and clean and bolt it? Ground up man. Ground up. Outside of difficulties finding the topout from above, and the time it would take to climb another route to the top (much faster than walking around), there's no need to rap to clean or finish the line as there really are no deathblocks that are goign the treaten us completing the route ground up. If there was undue risk to complete the FA ground up, sure we'd rap in, clean, bolt where needed, ect. But, when there is no need for that why not do it in a better style. Right. If you rap down the wrong place you can just clean and bolt the line for your next route. Then we're right back to the style thing. what can ya say... some folk have none.

You did a good job negotiating for your boss. You work fewer days get paid less and put in more hours.

No. You would think that, but my workstation is super ergonomic. I have a cyst that needs removin. It came about back in December and still hasn't quite healed. I'm sick of the constant draining, and the cutter agrees with me that this should have been taken out well before now. I think it is time for a new primary care physician. On your hand? Elsewhere. That really does blow....especially if its the area I'm thinking its in. Then again if it is in the nether region you should be able to climb.

I know I should go do something useful, like paint the bathroom, but I may or may not be going bouldering in a couple of hours (waiting for my friend to call). Ya know what? I hate Southern Ontario. I couldn't find anyone who would go sport climbing with me this weekend. *pout* Cheesetits is not going to show up if you want to go bouldering. History reinforces this. I'm going to bolt some shit in a few hours. Waiting for the rain to pass right now. Grrrr It wasn't me she was waiting for. She does have more than one friend And indeed I did go bouldering. I had a better time yesterday than Saturday, my arms are tight and my shoulders a little sore. Kelly, I still can't get through the backstroke crux, but I might be getting closer. By the fall we will nail that suka!! Its my grip strength that keeps failing me. Either I need to get on it all the time, or I've got to find slopers I can actually hang on to in the basement and set up some sort of system wall section. Problem in question from three years ago (for any that might be interested): [image]http://photos-b.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v58/8/85/502206225/n502206225_11545_3313.jpg[/image] is this the only boulder problem in Southern Ontario? Don't get me rong, it looks fun, but I think I've scene about 75 pictures of this and zero of other problemz. It would appear that way wouldn't it? I think its because its down by the river and we mostly chill there and have time to take pictures. Speaking of which....it looks like I'm headed down to the glen today with a girl from RC.com if there's anyway you can make it down there today Kelly. Now that it's cooling down we're going to have to make an effort to get there a bit more I guess.
8:1 odds against cheesetits climbing today.

Give the cat some bourbonrat poison for breakfast. I'll give you rat poison! if it would help make this cod I'm coming down with less bothersome, I'd take it! Dude, where are you coming down to? if it's anywhere near me, don't use the rat poison. dunk that cod in some batter, roll it in breadcrumbs, and shove it in the fryer- we'll get some chips to go with it, and drownz it in salt and vinigar. Wooooo!

The company paid $2,000 for my 2.5 pound laptop for travel and insurance is telling me I can replace it for a whole $799. bull shit I told them.
