disobey_gravityThe 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: To The Rainbow, the 15-minute documentary about Paul Pritchard's return to the Rainbow Slab in the Dinorwig slate quarries, fourteen years after devastating head injuries (I wrote about it here).
The fact that it's on Vimeo in its entirety is possibly a massive copyright violation, but it's been put there by Pritchard's co-star, Johnny Dawes. Whose book is awesome.

But the glee this week is that someone I met at the rock gym is going to climb with me on Wednesday, at least, next week, so even if my partner is still out with an injury, I'll climb!
