Well, fall lasts 2 weeks and so does spring. You know, those nice 10C temps where there’s no bugs, etc. It rained most of April but I managed to get some good climbing in at Rattlesnake! Climbing Logbook: https://www.thecrag.com/ascents/by/wolfrock
It’s been great getting back into climbing this summer. I’ve even been meeting people to climb with through RockBase. Been spending a lot of time at the gym and finally doing v3s and some v4 projects, but they make me realize I really should be working on my onsight (5.10, v2-v3) more than killing my …
It’s been a pretty good summer for swimming. Weather-wise, the swimming was great about 80%-90% of the time. There was a bit of a cooler snap in early-mid July, but that’s what suits are for. We had a little heat wave that ended a few days ago. Happened to be in Sandbanks for that one. …

It’s been a year since our dog died and other things have happened, some good, some bad, mostly depressing. Physically I went way off the deep end especially from September to January. Holy shit, it’s like my body decided to stop pretending to get better and said “fuck it, I’m a middle aged man now …
