The Epic Tale of the Wednesday Team

Made mostly for the benefit of Joe.

So, team got off to a perfect start after I showed up about 13 minutes late (I took a nap and didn't wake up on time). Thankfully, our team is pretty awesome and took the initiative to start the warm up on their own. Yey! Speed would have gone well if I hadn't made the critical oversight of assuming that Emily can speed belay (she can't). There was so much slack in the rope that it started to wrap around Sorrel's leg...as I discovered after I was lowered (Me, Kale, and Bean were climbing at the same time). AAAH! Someone needs to teach her to belay faster. Sofi and I belayed bean for the rest of the speed. Projecting was pretty ridiculous. However, I *finally* stuck that one move and the ones after it. Sofi almost got the last move. Systems were both painful and awesome. And too easy. But still super cool.

Anway, that was practice.

EDGEWORKS SATURDAY! It will be good.

Get psyched!

Yeah I know. I nearly friggin' crapped myself.

Dude, what did I tell you? Call the Watlands...Jacque is taking me and if you could make it to poulsbo she could probably take you, too.

Their home phone is (360) 697-1766, i think.
