Colorado 2008: Wild and Crazy Guys

This week I will be posting pictures from our summer vacation in Colorado. Sewing-related posts will begin again next week.

You may be thinking, "Wild and crazy guys? In Colorado? What wild and crazy guys is Colorado known for having?"

Well, those wild and crazy guys were us! My husband and I lugged our gear all the way out to Colorado and went rock climbing!

Here is my husband approaching, and then "summiting" the Bullet Hole Boulder, just outside of Colorado National Monument:

And here are two pictures of me at the Rink Wall in Ouray, Colorado.

Finally, some shots from our favorite climbing day at Hartman Rocks, near Gunnison, Colorado. Scott approaching the formation we climbed:

I hate to admit it, because it doesn't sound all that impressive, but the name of that formation is Beginner's Slab.

Here is Scott rigging the rope...

...and at the top of a challengingly smooth friction climb that we both did that day:

Thanks to everyone for indulging me while I posted these vacation pictures! As you can tell, we had a wonderful, wonderful time! This is the last such post, and now I'll turn my attention back to sewing. I have an update on Ana and Juana and their shirts that I'll post this weekend and some sewing of my own to report on, if I can ever find the time! ;)
