Write Up:
For this event we had probably the smallest lesson so far: 4 people. This in general is always good because that way people get more attention from the instructor. After the lesson, I heard nothing but good feedback.

So as people arrived, we went off to climb as we normally do. I finally go to meet the famous Kathy that I heard so much about. Not a whole lot out of the ordinary happened during the climbing. Sharon avoided getting her picture taken as usual, but this time, the camera got passed around a bit, so there are actually some pictures of me in this one, but I don’t really know if that’s a good thing. One thing to note, most of us are now doing or working on 5.10’s. SOON WE’RE GONNA BE LEAD CLIMBING BABY!!!

The lesson finished and the beginners joined us. Pretty much all of them said they would be climbing again, and Terry and Carolina have already been added to the weekly emails, and I think they were warned about Dave’s emails.

More and more the meat of these events has become the get together afterwards, as it was for this one. We headed off to Lisa’s beautiful Queen’s Quay condo for a BBQ. We got to enjoy organic burgers, and the moistest (if that’s a word) cake, all made from scratch, and oh so well too. We also got to enjoy the indoor/outdoor pool, steam room and got to check out Lisa’s beautiful view of the lake.

Here is the next event.
