Rock Climbing.

Now and again I'll consider taking a class and learning some light rock climbing. Sometimes I'll look up on the walls and see someone making their way to the top of a cliff face and it seems like something I might want to try. And then I think of Mr. Gravity and come to my senses.

So I'll continue to hike and occasionally I'll do some light scrambling...maybe top out at what they term "Class IV". But nothing more serious than that.

Stone Mountain, North Carolina. Said to be one of the easiest places around to learn rock climbing.

Joshua Tree National Park, California. Where I did some rock scrambling and boulder climbing in 2010.

Everyone.

I have noticed, that everyone says that they would be this guy:



But in reality, everyone who says that would actually be one of these guys:



Why? Because they wouldn't want to be this guy:



Or one of these guys:


Frankly, they would, in fact, want to be one of these guys.



Because when you get right down to it, most of us are just a bunch of Good Germans.
