Roller Coaster of a Weekend
Started things off with an early exit from work on Friday to go climbing again. That’s not me, but I did make an attempt to climb about 75% of that route. Did some more lead climbing. Screwed some things up and learned a lot. Can’t wait to go back. Saturday was Dad and daughter day […]

Couple More
Found some more photos from last summer. Looks like a hot day at the park with Grandpa. Sunhats are important on hot days at the park. Or course a nice shady stroller too. – b
