climb both sport and trad (not very well, but I try) although, I am getting better! Yay me, travelling to climb: going to the Red a bunch and TN, WV, NC, GA paddle singing, trail running, urban runs w/Dawn, coffee from Nancy's and Java, live music, sesame soybean from zen garden, blueberries, insects, computers, Bush bashing, yoga, pilates, meditation, chanting, scabs, almond butter, mountains, making fancy dinners, eating at Ramsi's with a group of climbers, drinking with friends, watching movies,and my crazy dog Logan, and Alby and Charlie, his crazy feline friends. chocolate. lots.of.chocolate...and Runts.My dog Logan steals most of them, but I get the pink ones. He knows better.
I'd like to meet any number of people that are amusing, or can teach me something, or laugh at my jokes. Running, climbing, and hanging - out- in Louisville buddies are always appreciated as well. Does anyone know Oprah? I'd love to meet her, too.
