olyclimber

I went belaying.

We had a great time at Kids Ropeup this year. Snowbyrd, Bug, Billygoat, Uncle Alpinfox, and Olyclimber were there..and some other people. The highlight of the weekend was probably the almighty spitball. Straws were coupled with berries found in the woods to make semi-lethal weapons. I felt the sting a number of times before there was a weapons ban for the immediate camping area. The children ran around in a pack, re-enacting scenes from Lord of the Flies. We even managed to go climbing both days up in the Icicle. Saturday night while the children were "wilding" all over the campground, the adults cooked up many, many bratwursts and consumed a fair amount of ale. It was excellent to meet some people. On Sunday someone found a Praying Mantis. I'm not sure if this was a sign or not. Praying Mantis, after mating, tear their mates head off. Good times.

Darn...I thought this was going to be an itemized list of your lipstick and mascara bill.

Here is an example:

HELLO, SAILOR!

I have it. Call me on my cell phone and I'll get it to you.

Can somebody help me arrange getting a keg or two of this stuff for the Ropeup? Does anyone here know the maker, and can help me? I have someone who could bring it up to Seattle from PDX. I need you to help me help you.

I've done that little Boulder Lakes to Appleton Pass traverse. Very nice country.
