have i mentioned we like to climb

because we do.
we really do.

a few weekends ago, (my how time flies!) we went to sun valley with our good friends ben and jen to celebrate the 4th. on the way we stopped in twin falls, and climbed near dierkes lake. i love twin falls, i think it is the sweetest little city, and the water fall was quite impressive this year.










we climbed the "steepest 5.10 in the country" as the hand-drawn guide book boasts. it was amazing, and while i am normally not the type of climber to gloat, i climbed it clean, and i was pretty proud of myself.



then i did this climb, and as happy as i was to climb the 5.10, this humbled me right back to reality. and that my friends is why i love climbing. the moment you feel amazing, invincible, strong is the moment the rock begs to differ.

we are still awaiting our trip. the truck, brilliant old thing needed some doctoring, without it we are grounded. however once we leave, i will take lots of pictures, as i'm sure you all are as excited as i.
