You're right, Oli. Maxine has one hell of a spirit, almost more than I can handle. Her spirit is full grown for sure, but is still raw, pure, and untainted. The possibilities are limitless.

When I climb with my daughters I have the right perspective. I'm like a kid again, discovering the beauty and wonders of rock and nature and sky and clouds, and we're having a little adventure in our private world...

I always feel blessed to be a member of the Yosemite tribe of ballerini/chapman/mayfield/yaeger, with our three incredible kids, Anji, Braden, and Hayley.

With grown kids I often see, "by their fruits ye shall know them" inversely, as kids have this maddening way of doing the 180 on the parental deficits. So, as my friends expected, my super cool son Braden is organized, great with money, and punctual!

At least we share good balance skills, in our respective ways.

Swimming with his big sister Anji in the lake on top of Lundy Canyon. She is Chappys' daughter who I also helped to raise, along with Ken/chicken skinner. We all and her amazing mom Lynda, are really proud of her academic achievements, from Mariposa High to a soon-to-be-earned PHD from the Harvard Dept. of Evolutionary Bio. Her field is the gene expression of the Columbine flower, a plentiful species in Lundy canyon.

Don't have a current e-pic of Hayley, now 17, an awesome young women, seeming to also be on the academic science track. Post up Chicken Skinner!

Cosmic, you always struck me as quite a handsome fellow, especially when you are with Woody and Locker.

There are always qualifiers, and in some groups, Godzilla would look good but this in no way detracts from my compliment to Cosmic. LOL! I think.
