Saturday, 09 December 2006 - More outdoor adventures

T and I walk carefully along the soggy, muddy trail
during today's hike in Red Rock Canyon.

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for more outdoor adventures.

A leisurely hike in Red Rock Canyon along muddy, snow patched trails - just what the doctor ordered for our "active" rest day. S scouted our next climbs - probably the ones on the Quarry Wall that we have not yet attempted. If the weather holds, we'll be back on the rock wall tomorrow morning.

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.

S surveys the Wailing Wall -
aptly named because all of the climbs
are difficult - 5.10 or higher.

the Quarry Wall.

I really liked this tree - was impressed
by its graceful, erect stance.

S and T: dwarfed by the southern end
of the east canyon wall.
