Liftoff

Well, it’s official! The lovely country of New Zealand has approved my working holiday visa and I have bought a plane ticket! November 10! It’s feeling very real! (Gulp)

Yosemite Valley, October, 2016. I have climbed for 11 years now, 9 of which I spent almost exclusively as a gym rat. Before last fall, I never thought I could climb in Yosemite. A good reminder that “I never thought I could…” is not predictive.
