Packing

well here we go again. as i find it difficult to sit still in one place for too long i am headed off for another romp in the beauty that is the new river gorge. i am headed back to the new in order to continue my stint as a climbing guide with hard rock climbing. i am looking forward to meeting up with a load of old friends and getting back into climbing shape; though i have my doubts about the outcome of the latter of my two goals, it should be a wonderful time.

though i have not packed and i am supposed to leave tomorrow morning at the break of dawn, i have confidence that i will preform well under-pressure and the car will be ready to go by morning. my first trip of the season will be tuesday morning which gives me a day to settle into my five star digs; that's right folks, i'm moving up. Rob has offered me a spot in his upscale west virginia double wide; i actually don't know if it is a double-wide, it could be a single-wide who knows. at any rate it should be fun.

for those of you who have any vested interest in my future well being . . . well . . . i cannot tell you anything about it as i have no idea myself, so there you have it . . .

my goal is to paste a load of pictures on this site and be climbing hard again before i leave the new. pray to zeus for me (he controls rain and lightning) so that i will have good work and climbing conditions and check in often.

oh and since west virginia's tourist motto is "Wild and Wonderful", i took some artistic license to make my title.

peace love and happiness
ian

Glad to hear you arrived west of Virginia safe and sound! Sorry you and I didn't get more time to catch up while you were in Ohio. Luckily you're merely one state away, instead of an entire ocean...

...and remember, West Virginia's new tourist slogan is "Open for Business." So I'll keep my eyes peeled for some poetic waxing on the beauty of capitalism from you ;)
