I used to drink Tequiza back in the day. I'd like to go back in time and slap that version of me.

I thought BLL was a joke, but Munge gave me a few and I was quite impressed. Sure beats normal Bud. Of course hand drilling may have influenced my opinion....

BLah, that house is starting to make you boring Mr Mud. At least let mudworm come out and play! Seriously though, good luck and be safe. You need those thumbs for thumberclings.

yeah, looking forward to getting out. Getting close. Floor is done.

Had to rip out some more drywall. When the living room was done some 20 years ago they put a drywall nail through a water pipe. It did not leak much till recently, then when I pulled the baseboards off so the flooring could go in the nail come out followed by a bunch of water. That part of the sub floor has now been replaced, pipe fixed, but still need to do some blocking and patch a large hole in the living room wall. That was not in the project plan but I am gaining confidence in sweating pipes, blocking, laying down plywood and fixing drywall.

Could have been worse... Through an electrical wire & you touching it.

Blech, woke up at 4:30am and sorted and prepped the rack and I'm missing some items. Not sure if I'm going to postpone to another week or if I'm going to head out Sunday after getting new fifis and such. But yeah, exhausted, blech.

Gonna do it next weekend with Brad (weather permitting) My girl is going to return from LA (she's shooting down there) on Friday and drop a line over the route to video and photo the ascent for her reel. Sooooo yeah.

There really is nothing like putting on a haul pack packed for soloing. So heavy. It's like getting a tattoo, you forget the pain until you hear the drill, then it all comes rushing back. ugh.

cobbledik · « **Reply #38 on:** December 14, 2012, 06:48:50 AM »

aaaaaaaand weather bail. We have plans to jump on it in Jan weather permitting before the closures.

Man, can Brad put the fear of God in you about a damp route, but had a great convo with him over the phone. Super stoked for this route. This weekend will be another stay home and grade/cuddle weekend.

Didn't mean to put fear into you, but you can see the storm coming in for today and the route's going to be wet tomorrow. The thought of climbing the first and/or second pitches on damp lichen makes me very scared - I've been there and seen the runouts. The third pitch is a water-channel (which creates the water streak that makes up Sons of the West - it dumps right into it). And then more is coming in Saturday night.

Absolutely not a route to do when it is damp.

No grading for me this weekend, I've got a 70 foot ponderosa pine to drop and a bunch of burn piles that have been waiting for wet weather.
