Thursday

While I was taking in the laundry I saw this group of male mallards under the tree.  I tried to take a video because they were so talkative!  But just a low buzz - it was like a party where everyone was calmly chatting.
 

Joshua decided to try this route today - it was a 5.10+ and 5.11-.  (He rainbow climbed, which meant he used both routes.  It tends to make climbing much easier.)  However, those values are still really hard.  Isaac has done a 5.10 before but that's his current max.  Anyway, the nice thing about the rope is that I can actively belay.  There were a few times I pulled Joshua up a few inches so that he could reach the next hand-hold...I think we both had fun with it.
