Remembering good times!

Is that it? No more good weather this year. I am dramatizing this because I am sure there will be good weather but probably there will not be a perfect climbing day anymore as it was during our first three climbing adventure field trips.

Three weeks ago we didn't have class because Hampshire College had advising day, last week it had rained so it was too wet outside to climb and this week it was pouring rain; result: no nice outdoor climbing for the past three weeks. However, looking at the brighter side of things I can acknowledge the fact that we had time for other important things. For example, last week we practiced how to set up climbs on our own. I had no idea how to set up a climb all by myself and I am not sure if I would be able to do it today but at least I have now a better understanding about how to do it. This week we had some time for team bonding. We first went to Yankee Candle Village, relaxed, had some fun and learned each others names. I hope from now on people will know that I am Olivia, and not Sophie

For next week, we are hoping for good weather so we can get some nice climbs under our belt before it starts getting freezing cold. Keep our fingers crossed! And I hope then I will be able to talk a bit more about nature.
