Thanks for that answer Brad.

 It is gonna have to be a really fun boat, for Brad to get excited.

What if I add a sail to the canoe?

If it involves Atlantis, their first names are Fat, Slim, and No.

There must be other, willing climbers out there. Get Tim, he'll do anything.

 This is going to be an interesting season. Ladies putting up routes and also trading for equal sections with the guys on non-precleaned routes, placing bolts from stances that would make a gym climbers(male born) balls shrivel. I was complementing  Nelkins and JC on a newer 5.9 and was informed that the Kid(Barbella's) placed two of the bolts. Tuff Chix at 5.7 will put a look of concern on the brow of the leader, I mean what guy would want to bust an ankle/leg screwing up on a girl's route  :)

 Great to see Squiddo and his kiddo. I knew even at 2 1/2, he had bonded with us when he shared his prize possession with me. Good hiker and scrambler.

 Mud survived a half day of solo work to show up and comment "my grandma could place a bolt there", priceless. Tricia survived another day with/of the rest of us ::) She also Womaned up with a hammer. Vader was trying to bring down the Emperor with a brown rice booger. Waldo, what is happening?

 Fat, Slim and No may be a good theme for this year.

 There were a lot of climbers in Gulch Central yesterday. Even a Clint sighting.

 The idea of adding "in bed" at the end of whatever your fortune reads was a new one to me. Fun times at the Panda Express.

 Slightly sore hands and lazy Sunday musing with the sun just peeking out after the rain. Now one of my kids is knocking on the door.

Hey, my grandmothers got through the Great Depression. They were tough!  Clink, lots of King City work lately - I'm even teaching tomorrow! Are you folks headed out on Saturday or Sunday?

I just read a report that calls this the "first El Nino storm" of the season. Here in the central Sierra it predicts up to 15 inches of rain in the next 16 days!

Maybe J.C.'s doomsday predictions that Pinnacles season is "over" are true?  I sure hate it when he's right  :P

I need a couple more days of sunshine.  I have two routes in the High Peaks that need to be completed since I have no idea if I will be around next year.

You really really need new tires. And they've been waiting for you at the tire center!
Inch by inch, I will get there.

Yes. It can get you to Pinnacles 5.11 minutes faster on the slippery wet roads so you can put 2% more routes up each visit.

Do you hear that incessant, intermittent pitter patter on your roof?
Have you looked at the long term forecast for the next few weeks?
The season is OVER. We are truly destined to be Masters of Mud.
