Ah yes fail to plan , and all that ...
great i'll be 'round for sure. I have just checked and yes - received .
For me throw in a tricky access to the out back and it will be a blast.
Ill check and see about the transport from the airport.
I would think that the College ride board is a modern internet thing?

SO THE KNEE IS BETTER, Thats MY knee hows Evel's?
We are now into it, 5/14 - 5/20
So you were joking'?
Yanking' my chain?
will I hear a blip?
Or is my poverty again in the way?
20 bucks a day to kill off favored memories, ( and No Plans , no call, not even an E-mail poke!)
to make new ones of old men climbing past the glorious leads they did years ago?
well?
will Evel and Gnome go do a first ascent?
Injuring munds could care less,
but some MINDZ might care
who's lead is IT?

This is bad, very bad behavior, Evel.
Give him a tinkle, the least you could do.
A guide for the Gunks would charge you a mint, if it's a money thing.
And Gnome Ofthe 9-volt Battery Pack, calm down, take deep breaths, think "I'm a pool of water, but why is everybody pissing in me?" and be happy to have those turds floating in you.
And no burnings in effigy, otay?
Call me later this day, too, as I'm busy this morning.

I am not promising but for the best hard-core ('trad')
climbing on a short approach criteria 1 Time Being: Line Not Shown Here
2 Mission Improbable 5.10 (Grade & Protection needs confirmation) FA: 1977 Rich Romano & Dave Feinberg
3 Killer Bees 5.11R (Grade & Protection needs confirmation) FA: 1992 Rich Romano & Phil Schillaci
4 Sweet Meat 5.9 FA: 1960 Art Gran & Bill Yates FFA: 1968 John Stannard & G. Livingston
The initial climbing that leads to the ledge with the large tree is very easy(5.3?) but extremely loose.
@^@
5 Swinging Cunt 5.9 FA: 1962 Bill Goldner, Paul Karmas, & Gerd Thuestad FFA: 1968 John Stannard & Don Morton
5a Super Sunday 5.10 FA: Rich Romano This is a much cleaner and exciting line
6 Hang'Em High 5.12- 510R (Grade & Protection needs confirmation) FA: 1980 Rich Romano & Russ Clune
*something else?

fresh back from having the driver friendly GPS that is in the V-Dub, try to kill me, Roasting the already grinding brakes to official ly Toasted.
. I have a tale that I owe to tell, the sad thing is the pictures you see,
"AW,thats sweet", and "Spot the gnome", are about it.
now is a bit early and there is the fact that I'm happily cramping, which sucks .
time to make a dent in the celebrex and then the J W Dant ,.
I will have to admit it seems that going up some thing because the rap station, Still a scarce in the Near Trapps , is at the top seems a pain,
when just over at the Trapps, across 44/55 there are bolted stations, and more bolted stations.
All set to provide the Horde, because on weekends, when
it it is a certainty that the sky will stay blue,
that the way the cliffs at the gunk's fill with climbers is best describe by the word.Horde.
I will only add THANK YOU,
Miraculous master, a philly Hybrid , Like no other, For REAL.
and until yesterday, when they hired another, she was the 1st & only woman Boxing Coach,
of the Male Cadets ' Top ten collegiate TEAM. some 60 cadets can sing up each semester.
THAT GIRL & Evel! We had a fun time.

Question-Are Gnome of the Diabase and G Gnome one and the same or completely different characters?
And what does Gnome of the Diabase really mean or does it?
Anyway wish I was at the Gunks and that it wasn't so far away.
Cheers,
Arne
