History is Fiction

I have a short term goal: climb and write.

Simple enough?

How about a long term goal?

Long term goal: don't die.

Not specific enough? How about a photo dump:



The Cirque de Towers in the Wind River Range




El Capitan and Half Dome in Yosemite Valley




The Grand Tetons in Wyoming



Get the picture?

Big Walls.

Big Wall Climbing.

That took about a week to figure out.

Now, the hard part: how do I accomplish that long term goal? And still pay off my unpleasant college loans?

If I knew that I'd do it. But I'll figure it out. I'm not worried.


In other news, I've spent the last week climbing, working, playing Sheep's Head, and various other things. It's strange how the "tourist attractions" in the Red River Gorge are some of the most un-photogenic sights I've seen. There is  no real way to get a good angle or adequate lighting to take picture of the formations.

Yet, if you see it with your own eyes, it is still quite stunning. And there are plenty of places around here to visit and be stunned by the beauty.

Sorry of a lack of an interesting story. Sometime soon I may have one.
