Advice from climber a decade younger (Donini): You want to learn to climb cracks? Do laps on the Generator Crack!
The elder's response (Lauria): But it hurts!
Accrued wisdom reacting to the enthusiasm of youth.
Happy birthday, Jim.

Happy Birthday to a world class human being and a climbing legend.
You appear to be ageless, which I attribute to being married to Angela, climbing, and vino rosso.
Stay well and keep moving! Phyl

I'm sure Jim Donini does not think of himself as old. My Yogi, who is 95 years old, is, only now, considering the fact that he may be getting just a little bit old. I think, that's how Mr. Donini will handle it. Keep on keeping on Jim!
I love to hear what you have to say Jim, you've got a good head on your shoulders, and a kind heart.

Thanks everyone for the kind wishes. I had a great day in the Tetons. I took Ali, the 19 year old granddaughter of a client from the 70's who became one of my beat friends, up Guide's Wall.
The enthusiasm and wonder of young people like Ali magically shed years.

Happy birthday! I climbed Guides Wall when I was about 19. Climbing in the Tetons changed my life- what a great way to spend your birthday!

I was asked earlier if I was reflective.....well, about turning 74.....it's a lot better than not turning 74.
