It’s the best kind of drunk… Whiskey drunk. And let me tell you, we’ve been trashed since Thanksgiving. I’ve gotten out with Peder and Jessica Groseth quite a bit in the last couple weeks and all three of us have taken advantage of the abnormally nice weather (for boulderers at least). We’ve had a nice balance of old stuff, new established and new FAs. Jess has probably had the best tick list with sends of the classic V2/3/4/5’s Wave Runner, Emphysema Traverse and Globe Trotter. Peder tore through everything at the End of the Road and even added a couple cool new problems. He also got the likely second ascent of Capsule for One V9 at the Urinal. I managed to finish up my last “do-able project” by finishing up the ultra-classic Fe Fi Fo Fum V7. I guess I need to find something new or get a little stronger for the super projects. Here’s some phtotos from the last coulple weeks as well as a vid of myself on Fe Fi Fo Fum. Jess has some great photos up on her blog as well. Check ’em out!

I just watched the Fe Fi Fo Fum video in anticipation of maybe trying it this weekend, and I thought “Wow, this song sounds like it’s from a movie. Is it from Lord of the Rings?” Then the horn kicked in, and I realized that it’s that same damn song from the Good, the Bad and the Ugly again! One of these times I’ll recognize it…
