Almost out of New Jersey

Tomorrow we head out New Jersey after a few days with relatives. The weather this trip has been so swampy--hot and humid--that anything outdoors has been disgusting. I don't know how people stay here and remain climbers.

A good story on the NYT website about a 41 year old swimmer Dara Torres qualifying for the US Olympic team with some interesting points about non-athletic factors that bog older adults down, chief among these being time and money.

Hoping to get back into climbing upon my return. I've had a good physical rest period but I'm really ready to actually do something for a change.

  2. Thanks for the suggestion. Maybe next visit. Maine Rock Gym wasn't too great looking. We've been to the NJ rock gym a couple of times but the bouldering wasn't so great.
