I'm psyched ! My bro-in-law ADAM is in 8) He's very cool, and he'll, hump my stuff ! :shock: He goes to U-Mass ,Amhurst he's a soffmore. Writing is his major, I think.
He's pumped to climb and he'll spray like crazy......Really he's good people ! don't know if he's climbed outside yet...gotta get pics of him.
We'll see you there...NO Whippers !

Arggg, maybe we should wait till Sunday...I'm used to this c-rap but, maybe y'all aren't. It would give it a chance to melt off....I'm open for ideas.

hmmmmm...yeah but tomorrow is supposed to be sunny, and that'll let the rock warm up and melt stuff off.
saturday might be kinda chilly what with the cloudyness and all.
sunday does look to be the better day temp wise...I'm keeping both mornings open. whichever day, I have to take off noontime. concensus?

I can climb on either day so I wouldn't mind switching to Sunday since it's going to be warmer.

I have kind of an odd request, Um the next time someone goes to the BRG, could someone check the lost and found for my eye glasses ? The one /only time I was there I left em on a changing bench by the little changing booths near the front...I just realized that's where I had them last.
They are squarish , brownish rims by Armani, the ear rests are slightly chewed up, and the lenses are a bit scratched. In general they are a little pair of glasses. :shock:
It would be greatly appriciated, your reward for this tastk, will be food, of your choice :D

I could climb on Saturday or Sunday. If we climb Saturday then I plan on climbing Crow Hill on Sunday where the extra warmth is necessary.
Guess I will be there Saturday dressed warmly unless someone feels strongly about it.

So it seems the natural progression is moving out of Boston, When are we going to Crow Hill, Erics territory ? He's got a heck of a commute to the QQ, Cro-magnum a nice 5.10 looks great in the guide ! Plans,plans plans, 8)

I always thought Cro-magnon was an 11? Anyway, it's a hell of a nice route. Ditto for Tarzan. If anyone's headed out that way sometime soon and needs a partner, give me a shout. I've been wanting to lead Tarzan for a while now.
I think I might have to bag out on QQ. Sorry. If it's warm enough, I'm going to give Rumney a shot on Sunday.
Have fun!
GO

Yeah, I'm thinking the group thing on sunday, it'll be warmer and it'll give me a chance to spent time with the bro-in-law. He's pumped.
It'll also take the pressure off to get all the food tonite, so I can spend some time with the gerl I married.
I'll still plan on going earlier than later, gots to hear what the rock says :shock:

y'all suck. Not that Saturday was a much better chance, but Sunday is right out. I'll be thinking of you all when I'm carrying a sofa bed down from a third floor apartment .
I'd rather be climbing.

You guys missed a great day, I got there at 8:am, and hooked up with a group of four climbing C-wall, set up my rope over the Flake routes in the middle...
my very first anchors ion C-wall were bomber thank you very much...
after I set up (and triple checked) the anchors I used my grigri to self belay down the face, worked mint! climbed a bunch on all three ropes on C-wall , and then pulled my rope and went over to L-face, there I hooked up with Jumaringjeff and foograbbinstone. I set up my rope over the face (Jeff double-checked my top rope anchor knots after i['d got done setting up.) in between the cracks and the corner, and got my ass handed to me several times trying to get barely 8 feet off the ground... finally with enough coaching (and grunting and groaning and cursing) and solid rope pulling by jeff I made it about 3/4 of the way up...tough route!
Jeff thanks for pulling hard on the rope, I wouldn'a got up otherwise ;-) that route kicks ass!
of course, Foo made it to the top, but not without struggle...
I also bumped into two other Gravity Regulars Don and Lauren, with a couple other friends of theres. my feet hurt and my fingers hurt and I'm gonna have a kick ass bruise on my knee from one swing I took on theat last route...
great day!!!!
forgot to takew pics oops! oh well
fricken beauytioful weather!!!
