WHY DO I Do This To Myself?

We’re heading quickly for September and I was talking to my Mom about how I wouldn’t be free again until about Thanksgiving and she asked why I do this to myself. This was actually almost the original title of this blog.

And a valid question.

That I don’t have an answer to. 

So as September kicks off I have climbing planned in Pennsylvania, Upstate New York, training for how to rig trees for climbing (for science), caving, rappelling, a trip to Pittsburgh, top rope training, and trad lead fall training. All this in addition to teaching a women’s rock climbing class on Sundays followed by teaching a learn to climb class.

See you all November. Or whenever I get back from what I’ve done to myself most recently.
