The two shown here have been climbing together since 1974.

I doubt anyone on this site other than Rob has a chance of recognizing either one

I'm going with Captain Kangaroo and Mr Green Jeans

It's Friday today, and I'm going to flash back to two of my favorite photos ever. In November, 1995 Vicki and a three month old Katie accompanied me to the Crowley Towers. I did every route that the '95 Rubine guide showed up there. But the best memory is of the girls, not the routes:

Atom, need the flashback yo!

Clink, you're too young to remember Hopalong Cassidy, but your photo reminds me of (I confess!) my Hoppy outfit.

Those are great photos Clink, but you gotta make them bigger (and not sideways). If, per chance, you're not sure how, call me during an evening if you want and I'll walk you through how to post full sized photos?

And wow, you married a kid! And you must have been a kid then too.

Here's a flashback of a different kind.

When I got to the office this morning, I told my secretary and my receptionist about a new climb that Roger and I put up yesterday on The Russian Wall. My secretary is 62 years old. My receptionist is 40.

The name of the new route is Sputnik (5.10c *). The route description starts with this phrase:

"This route is located on a small satellite cliff 70 feet left of the route Zookeeper…"

My secretary was old enough to get the pun. My receptionist didn't.

Who here is old enough to get it?

Brad Young · « **Reply #33 on:** June 05, 2014, 08:44:13 AM »

Ah, much better, thanks J.C.

Man Clink, what did you do to deserve such a beauty?

I know how to read a dictionary damnit!

Everyone knows Sputnik.

Spherical and quite pointy in parts...

You were expecting us to cry ourselves to sleep on our huge Pillahs!?

It's Friday. These two are from the top of The Royal Arches, August, 1984. They are the oldest climbing photos that I've got:
