Past The Crux

Apparently, I am in dire need of a prom date. Its my senior year, and I have been told  by some fairly influential people in my life that I must get a date and go. It’s April 21st. The event will be held on a swanky rooftop in Downtown Montgomery, AL. All expenses for my date are paid for. There are horse-drawn carriages available throughout the evening. The date will be requested to be my lady for Leadout (where the couples are introduced in front of the families and friends of everyone going. At this point in time, I am not asking for a dating relationship or anything more than just a nice girl to spend a wonderful evening with. However, I could be talked into changing my mind :)

So if you know of anyone, or if you are interested yourself, please, let me know! :) 

Thanks!

Every day becomes more and more beautiful and precious to me. Not because the seasons are changing, although they are. I think it’s me though; my attitude and my perception on life are changing. I take nothing for granted. I am thankful for everything, big and small. When I look outside, I think of how blessed I am to have woken up on this day that was made for me. I charge forward each day, optimistic and hopeful. Every day my goal is to take every opportunity given to me, and turn it into a positive. To me, this is the good life. not one thing is perfect. All together, it all makes me content-even just for right now, and THAT is perfection!

Well everyone, my break has officially began. The next three days I will be fishing a company tournament with my dad on Lake Guntersville, Alabama. Then, we will drive up to the farm just west of Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the week. The mornings we will fish, and the afternoons I will climb.

My new Yose pad from STONELICK will be in tomorrow, so I’m really stoked to have some true protection. I expect to push myself just that much harder.

Weather all week should be clear and 75-85 should be the high. Expect to see a lot of sends and first ascents. I’m looking forward to some great sessions.

I may go out to Foster falls, which is maybe 15 minutes from the farm, and do some highball bouldering there if I get bored with the stuff I have at the farm. Some other spots I may also check out are Prentice Cooper State Park, Stone Fort, and the Tennessee Wall. If the weather is nasty, I might ride over to Tennessee Bouldering Authority, or Urban Rocks Climbing Gym. Helps to be prepared.
 

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying Spring. It is beautiful here in the south. 

Until next time, keepbrake hand on the rope at all times, and never lose sight of your goals.
