Cold Can of Beer
Climbing the overhang puts a little more stress on their tiny soft hands (at least until their skin toughens up), so we did what Mommy and Daddy used to do when we first started climbing. Put a cold beer in their hands. Of course the novelty of getting to hold a cold can of (Granddaddy’s) […]
