Ha ha. I didn't say I wasn't going. I was just mentally preparing for what kind of Saturday we will have, cooler climbing under cloud cover or drinking under the canopy out of the rain....I enjoy both.

HA, you animal. Would you rather be running from clouds or valley leo's.

Good weekend to bring the armory again and shoot away. Getting an AR soon? My advice, spend a bit more and you'll be happier.

Happy to help- glad you are not pistol shopping. Brown just took two giant steps towards tossing the Second Amendment out the door in our lovely state today.

Happy to offer advise If I can help.

weather was terrible, and fun, and we got some climbing done.

why was I not surprised to run into John and Susan while driving out (to go home pretty much), and then we end up getting a new climb done and I'm wearing shorts. Crazy soyo!

Looking back, I am not sure what we were expecting to find besides you guys heading towards the bad weather! Good thing we bumped into you guys. Great place to spend a rainy day, right?

Whoa what a storm! Soyo, Yos, high country epics abound!

Saturday, the hell clouds were moving in hard on me while I was drilling an anchor. 

Kev was cleaning the pitch with lightning rods all around.

Sunday, Spent an hour and a half in a mini cave on the approach, full on pummeling with hail.

Awesome weekend!

It was a close one Dan. Percent forecast for 5hr drive each way is always the trick. But I'm down to climb most of the time.

However, Josh says I'm light duty because I want to stay in the air conditioning next weekend and drink Skinny Girl Margaritas by the pool.

LOL
