Obsessive Climbing Disorder

almost gone

Just getting finished with all the house work out in the country, thanks to laurens help, I have been working and cleaning when I get a chance, and of course climbing in some of the wettest conditions that i have ever had down here, we have had record floodings causing the ground to be soaked, then the falls acts like a sponge sucking the water out of the soil, shitty conditions good training for circuits on the beaver wall. Luckily I got to send some of my projects before the conditions changed "Red Corvette" and "Shorty the Pimp" this spring and shoulda coulda but didnt send "devil on a leash". There will always be more good days in So ILL to look forward to. But next time it won't be out my back door.
We have just moved in the RV on Memorial Day weekend, the busiest camping day of the year. CRAZY! everywhere was sold out we got a spot a lake Murphysboro, The spot was barely enough room for the RV, all 55 spots were filled all weekend with wild campers.
We rented a pontoon boat with Laurens brother and sister-in-law and 2 children, and some local climbers came out with us, the winds were 25-30mph and the boat trafic was crazy and the water murky and cold, the climbing was good, food, friends, family, and brew were also good. Monday we stilll had the pontoon boat and had a climber full pontoon boat, it rocked, the psych was high and so were we. Cant wait to go back out after a couple of days of rest and work.
Today Hogan ate rodenicide cube but we had no bleeding or s/s of bleeding, we called poison controll, and the vet and some guidelines for saftey. Hogan is a picky eater he won't eat pancakes or tortillas but he ate rodenicide. this is the 1st update of the trip, hopefully there will be more climbing involved next post
