chelle Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 Hey gang! I'm back from the land of great food and big volcanoes to drink some beer with my climbing friends. Oh and celebrate joining the ranks of the unemployed! I guess I'll finally get to live the climbing bum lifestyle I've been aspiring to... See ya'll at Hattie's Hat at 6:30 pm tomorrow night. Details:5231 Ballard Ave NW(206) 784-0175 Quote

Cool! glad Bolivia treated you well. Now as a newbie climbing bum, a little advice. Never, ever sell your wetsuit (assuming you have one), it can mean the difference between feast or famine in those EXTREME dumpster diving situations , or the difference between sitting in the truck/tent in nasty rain being miserable in Zion and blasting some cool slot canyons while the other bums go "man, if I only had a wetsuit". BTW, I rejoin the brother/sisterhood of dirtbag climbing bums in April. Quote
chelle Posted January 28, 2002 Author Posted January 28, 2002 A wetsuit?!? Another piece of gear I have to get. Darn! And I thought I only needed to get some ice tools... BTW it was Ecuador, Bolivia will have to wait until next time.... Quote

Damn, and I think last week I even asked someone what you were climbing in Peru and got corrected. So much for the bong loads not affecting short term memory ehh?! Quote
rodeo Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 Welcome back!! Hattie's Hat sounds cool. Anyone know how "smoke free" that place is? I've not been there yet. Quote
mattp Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 I know they allow smoking in the main bar area, near the front door, but I'm not sure about the back room where we sit. Anyway, I don't like a smokey bar and I don't remember it being an issue. Back in the days of yore, when it was packed with old alcholics and fisherman, it used to be VERY smokey. Kids these days just don't seem to know that you're supposed to chain-smoke when you're drinking. Quote
chris_w Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 I remember last time Capt got a stern talking to by the waitress for lighting up. Something like "NO Smoking till after 10pm in the back room" Quote
