Friday glee does not personally have that swing

The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week.

It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun; it can be that your favourite climbing wall is expanding or that you bought new rock shoes or that you found a cool ice-climbing vid on YouTube. No glee is too small -- or too big. Members are encouraged to cheer each other on and share the squee.

N.B. Please feel free to post your glee on any day of the week; the Friday glee is just to get the ball rolling.

To enhance this week's glee: Dave MacLeod does a spot of light bouldering in the rain (note the tactical use of a jacket to keep the final holds dry).

Still no climbing, but I'm working hard to keep in shape. I've been pushing bigger weight with my upper body, which has definitely built muscle mass. I hope that when I do climb again that proves to be a game changer in my ability to mantle and other moves that require upper body strength.
