When you still have it!

Today on the way home from work I stopped in the park near the house and found that the locals had set up a line.  It was a good walk and  anice day for it.  It was nice to know that I still have it.  It brings back my dreams of walking a highline.

They gave me their card since they also make films. www.noreastfilms.com

Getting back into my routine!

Well this last weekend I was able to work on house projects and cleaning and make it out bouldering for a cold day in Smugglers Notch.  The leaves are gone and there were a lot of hikers and very few boulderers out there.  I think mostly because there was some frost in the ground and all the overhanging boulders still had frost under them.  Soon I will be only able to ice climb or climb in gyms.

I got to send Nemesis again with just one pad and no spotter and I felt that this was a great accomplishment for me proving that once you learn the moves it can be incredibly easy and not even taxing or scary the second time.   I had no camera with me so I included the pictures that Steph got this summer of me on the problem working it prior to getting the first send that happened about a month ago.  I also find that this one is all in how you hang on the sloping holds.   The first two are top of the notch which goes at V2 and the second three are getting through the first crux of Nemesis for me which goes at V5.
