Last weekend the weather was crappy, another weather system was rolling through Arizona, but we made the best of it and went Climbing anyway. Saturday Zoltan, Dustin, and I headed down to Sedona to finish off "Mission to Mars" 12d, on the Church Wall. Though we had worked it before neither of us had ever sent and it was unclimbable all Summer, and this was only our 2nd trip this season. It was pretty cold out but not terrible, and it only rained on us occasionally, but none the less we both sent! First try of the day! It is such an amazing route that I'm almost sad we sent, now we don't have to work it anymore. That's OK though, we can now shift our focus onto the Asylum!
On a side note, Yesterday I went to the Valley to do some shopping and visit my friend Wes. I caught up with he and Mel @ Lo-Lo's Chicken and Waffles in South Central Phoenix. Now I know it sounds like a crazy combination but good southern fried chicken dipped in syrup and rolled in waffles with a side of eggs and grits................OMG!!!! So good. If your only going to try one strange food combination in your life, I suggest that this be it!
We had a Great day out at the Asylum this weekend. Maybe 40 degrees out but the sun made it feel pretty warm @ times. I had to get a little festive, given the season. Unfortunately the hat didn't help me send, that pesky finger injury is really holding me back. We still had a lot of fun and I used some of my downtime to take pictures of Dustin and Zoltan. I especially like the ones I got of them on the crux move of "To Air is Human"! FYI, you can click on the photos to enlarge them to get a better view of their facial expression :)
