Friday glee was getting dire there

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: another excellent slice of Rocklands bouldering filmed by Kevin Takashi Smith.

Yeah, that connection thing is the best.

I only get to climb like once a month, maybe. So when I go, I climb until I absolutely can't make it up a 5.5. I take food and lots to drink, and I come home so exhausted I fall right to sleep.

So it's probably less endurance than pure stubbornness!
