wow I never knew someone having a stroke could be so funny!

But rumor is that Dru only pays with loonies, so that may be a problem for you.

A reminder to be kind to people, even on anonymous internet forums, and maybe even when they are being a dick or appear to be going through something. Everyone is battling their own demons...just a little kindness will go a long way. http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1068512 By the way, I can't recommend enough the movie about Charles Bradley....its called "Charles Bradley: Soul of America", and it is streaming on Netflix. Or either of his two albums (though his first is my favorite. Watch the movie....and if you like it buy one of his albums.

it is a lot like going to battle for sure. was just thinking about what i did when I was growing up and at this age. i wasn't walking directly into the fire of head to head competition like this. but U seems to like it. but its nothing like the personal battle of, say, trying to climb something at the next grade up.

Some people just don't Internet that well. Its going OK! It is pretty nuts how competitive the game is getting at 11u....not to mention how nasty some of the parents have been that we have run into. But i'm pretty impressed with the coaching on U's team, and we still have lots of baseball to go.

guess who had 10Ks in 5 innings against Jaha this weekend? they used him in one inning in the first day, so too bad he could go the distance against those sore losers.

hahahahahahahaha.....how did you like that bitch slap!

i dig it

This definitely sounds like a great party with great weather and presented by some folks who have been taking care of Washington climbers for years. Definitely get there if you can!

This is the sort of TR that drew me to CC.com when I first discovered the place. Thank you James, I'm inspired for sure. Great pics and good story. These are the sorts of adventures we all love to take: there was a little drama, but you persevered, and had some memories that will be etched in you as long as you live. Who could ask for more.

DA BALLER!
