CLIMBING AT EVO





 Lucy and I woke up like every single other morning... then we got in her F150 and drove down to Concord blasting some throwback jams...aka old Kesha and Katy Perry however, Lucy was not having it with my music taste. We arrived at Evo and decided that it would be a big day for climbing on our bodies. We both ended up climbing 3 different routes all eventually getting harder. From a 5.7 to a 5.9 we did them all.  Lucy and I laughed a lot during our time together with Rosanna about how terrible the Aux was in Evo at the beginning of the day. We were exhausted after practicing clipping in two other tricky climbs and belays but in the end, we were okay. Back to Proctor, we went where we did some individual work and planned out our last few signs that we would end up putting up in the Proctor Woodlands. 

Todays time: 3 hours 

Total time 46.5 hours

SIGNS SIGNS SIGNS

 Today was quite a day for hiking. Not only was the weather perfect for hiking it wasn't humid nor was it hot. Lucy and I started the day off a little slow with both of us in a food coma we had no motivation to get up and out of bed. But we did it. We got up and out of bed and got dressed in the appropriate clothes for tick and bug season and headed over to Mac field. We hiked and hiked and saw many beautiful and cool sights. It was a big day for Lucy and I. We were able to get up a whopping 9 signs up in the Proctor Woodlands. We were proud of ourselves and we had a great time listening to some good down to earth sounds and laughed a lot. I face planted hard in the ground and lucy just sat above me laughing and yelling at me to get up... would not want any other type of relationship.

Now Rosanaa told us "oh this woman is so nice and kind she will be no stress when watching you climb" Rosanna ended up coming back with an old man who was quite intimidating as he watched Lucy and I climb.
