Rain rain go away...AND DON'T COME BACK.

I've had two days of climbing since the Red. One evening session bouldering near my house and one day climbing route with Matt.

The boulders we got on are right on the road so they are perfect for an evening session. Did a fun V4 first go and then tried this thing call Sparkle Motion (V6). Came close to doing it but couldn't quite stick the crux move. We got on one other problem that evening, as the light was waning and I discovered that I "need to learn how to sit start, son."

Yesterday Matt and I got out for the day, which was fun. Started at the Stairmaster boulder and tried Skipski (V5) which is actually a really fun problem. Then we hiked up the stairmaster with intentions of getting on Kligfield's Follied (5.11d). About ¾ of the way there, a sun shower appeared and so we got on the Sting (5.11d) which is under a huge roof and usually stays dry. After that I got on Wasp Stop (5.12a) which was dramatically harderd than The Sting. But hey, bouldering on a rope is always fun.

After that we went over to the Nears and got on the Pearl (V8). What a pretty boulder. Not the best thing to climb in a sporadic drizzle, however.
