The past week has been pretty RAD - I'm definitely falling into the climber lifestyle - its great!
I hung out with my dad in VA beach for a couple days - hitting up the VA Beach Rock gym - it was cool to climb on plastic - I don't really get much of a chance do to that - I was really psyched - I did the red sloper problem!!! - it took a few goes though.
I drove into Charlottesville Friday night and then Sat morning - Matt, Katherine and I marathoned it to the new for a day trip - It rained our entire drive there - though Endless Wall was dry in places - I was psyched to do my hardest trad route yet - What I am pretty sure is Carl's classic - The Rabbit Almost Died - it was wet - but only on the scary run-out ledge mantel... =) That night - we hit up the Chris Sharma slideshow - and then did a scary drive back to Charlottesville
Then Sunday - we drove to this crag - which is located on private property - I can't really say what its called or where it is - but its RAD! There I tried a project (for me) - I didn't do it - but I feel really close on it. I'm either going to stay here and try it the rest of the week (its rainy here today,) or drive to the New River Gorge and climb for two days with Eddie and Rachel Mellville -
OK - gonna go back to sleeping on the couch and watching movies - life is tough =)
