pope Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 On a grim November weekend, when the canyons of Leavenworth seem hauntingly empty, as the last oak leaves fall to blanket the town's Uber Strassen, Dwayner, Pope and Big Lou wrestle with steep cracks and impending darkness, on a lonely tower standing guard over the Wenatchee River. What has emboldened us to scale these licheny precipices while lesser climbers (like that "Zee" character) sit waiting for ski season, ice climbing and Easter Egg hunts? I'll tell you...it's the presence of Him. When darkness falls and we're facing the possibility of bivouac, I know we'll be OK cause He's there. When icy winds blow down from the north end of Tumwater canyon, I wrap myself in the blanket of His warmth and security. With Big Lou along for the climb....did I say Big Lou? Hey, I meant Big Blue. BIG BLUE.....yeah, that's the nickname I've given to my big, blue down parka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
