since idyllwild is back on the front page, i thought i'd bump this.
followed tom on man who fell to earth, many years ago. i remember tom took a pretty big whipper in that weird, flared crack section.
but he went back up and finished the lead.
there was a hold at the crux that looked chipped.
i yarded on it shamelessly.

We just visited Tom a few days ago, his spirits are good and he is working hard to gain more strength in his shoulder with positive hopes of someday being able to push a hand drivin bicycle or a light weight specialized wheelchair that will allow him to get around on his own. Every time we visit Tom he's shown improvement and we know this is a goal he will achieve. However, Tom's account needs some serious help to purchase even a used bike or chair. October 23rd is Tom's 50th birthday; a great time to show our support! Thanks to all of you for your help.

This is going to be a very tough road for Tom. He needs our financial support to help rebuild his life. Tom needs help with medical bills, ongoing expenses, handicap improvements and basic necessities for his future home to help him face this life changing event.
Please post stories and pictures about Tom to help get this fund going and send Tom some good energy.
