Its finally Summer

After a long cold winter, Spring arrived and disappeared in a blink. It is already hot and Summery here in NYC. Its been a week since memorial day, and all the outdoor events, including the outdoor concerts and dancing at Bryant Park have started. The days are long and it doesn't get dark until 8:30, so there is plenty of time to do stuff outdoor.

Memorial Day

Last weekend, was memorial day weekend and I went climbing with my friends Andrei and Fred. Natalie and Peter, Fred's wife and friend joined us along with scout their very energetic Border Collie.  I led a 5.3, and followed a 5.5, 5.7 and 5.8. I came off the 5.8 but the other climbs went well.
