The heat is on.

So, crazy temps right now. Today it was 80 degrees. And sunny. Yesterday was pretty similar. And so the climbing season seems to be jump starting quite nicely. I guess my request for in like a lion out like a lamb was granted.

And because of all this nice weather we've been able to get out climbing the past few days. Wednesday it was still pretty moist outside. The clouds didn't really lift until like 6:30 at night. But Thursday and Friday were great! (I called in to work on Friday....oops.) Thursday we went out to Deadwater and did some climbing with a bunch of friends. Pete and Katie Q. were here, as well as a New Paltz contingency. All in all there were seven of us climbing. Super fun routes there for sure.

And then yesterday we went up to Potter. This time it was Pete and Katie, Rich and Me, and Nyssa and Amanda. Did some fuuuuun climbing, including this 5.10a called Piece Out. What an outstanding pitch of climbing. Holy crap it's good. Perfect holds for climbing on, exciting the entire way. Woohoo.

Soon I will be laid off, and soon I will be in Kentucky.
