It’s amazing how much weather can change in a couple weeks. I was at the Pantywall on Thanksgiving and it was tank top weather. Not so today, Holly & I were out with longsleeves & jackets. We were determined to get some climbing in on our trip to Colorado, so stopping off at Red Rocks seemed perfect. Holly had not been out in awhile, and I thought the Pantywall would be perfect for us.
I woke up super early in the morning, and finished arranging things for the move. I had to fit whatever was left into my truck and still have room for the cats, Holly, our bags, and climbing gear. When Dennis got the job out in Denver, I knew right away I wanted to take a road trip out there instead of having my truck & the cats shipped.
I met Holly at the south end of Ridgecrest and soon we were packing up the truck. I had hoped to be out of the house early, but we didn’t make it out until lunch! I’m so happy Holly helped me pack my truck. We even practiced putting on chains (just in case) and my neighbor Al came over and gave his 2 cents about our chain placement. Seems we did a good job, cause after about 20 minutes-we were dismantling them and saying goodbye to Al.
When I first thought of this trip a few people came to mind, but Holly was destined to join me. We had a few adventures together last summer, and it seems adventure brings her into my life 8^) If I ever decide to skydive, I’d be signing up for the trip when she’d come waltzing in…that’s just how we seem to flow.
