Friday glee is on the beach at Portrane
Jun. 22nd, 2012 08:44 amThe 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: Ricky Bell demonstrates the results of all that pro-active staircase campusing on Leviathan 8A.
(In case you were wondering, btw, Bell's blog attributes the broken toe to a an "epic late night door incident.")

Date: 2012-06-22 11:40 am (UTC)I climbed twice this week with my partner and felt pretty good about it. I'm getting back to the stage that I feel like I can maybe attempt some of the harder routes. I've been taking it easy after six weeks off!
But nothing ends a day better than climbing.
