Don’t you 2x need to relocate to a place with a golf course near by.

Isn’t that what retired folk do?

We already live a block away from one - but the beach is just as close and free - so we go there instead.

Great whale and dolphin watching today on a long walk - perfect temps and just a light breeze/flat seas  :lol:

Fun day with clink on the crud - although we had to cut it short - got 4 bolts in on a new project (two apiece).

Weather was very nice.

Met a couple nice folks at parking today - Henry and Sarah - and showed them around a bit - they were gettin' after it  :biggrin: :thumbup:

Sports Basement crew was at Crud n Mud.

Here's fresh mud in your eye  :arf:

Nice to see a pic of Kat (and your shadow) on one of my new routes... Hopefully I can get a party of people checking out additions to the area on the PCAD weekend!

Hey Zay -

The route is a new 5.7 I bolted in the past couple of months, at Spike's Peak. In total there are now 6 new routes at Spike's Peak that I've put up, with help from briham, JC (for the Little Javelina anchors), and others. The routes are 5.4, 5.7, 5.8, two at 5.10a, and one at 5.11a/b, with a few projects still unfinished. Yeah, I've been busy!

During the PCAD weekend I'll be hiking up to Spike's Peak with Brad Young - and hopefully other folks! - to climb the routes, and I'm guessing Brad will post details on the routes here at M 'n C after that. But IMO the lines are good, with two of the lines (a 5.10a and the 5.11) outstanding (and the other 5.10a pretty excellent too).

Send me a PM and I can give you more details.

Was out for some shenanigans with clink today.
Ribbit and Croak now exists. I told clink he jinxed it with the name. The route was hopping along just fine and then we decided to squash it. Somehow I kept getting suckered in by the holds and then got myself marooned on a very large lodestone - past an awful section that I was not about to downclimb. That is where we decided the anchor should go and the route should end. I drilled to exhaustion and we called it a day after clink joined me. Pics tamale.
