HOMESICK!

Okay, I said it! However, this time? I really mean it!
I still LOVE it out west, but I miss MY family. I mean, just look at these clowns!

Jackson Hole Daily | 2 climbers saved after fall

One of the 2 climbers is my great friend Jonathan. I'm glad to hear that he escaped this scary fall with scrapes and bruises. His friend had more serious injuries but is expected to have a speedy recovery. It could have been much worse. These are the risks climbers take when they are on the rock.

Backpacking to Granite Basin

I love backpacking so much that I forget, every time, how much it hurts to get blisters on my feet and toes, how much my back aches, how much it hurts to wear a backpack on top of sunburnt shoulders, mosquitoes, black flies, red flies, spiders in tents, getting caught in a lightning storm with strong wind gusts, stepping in random animal poop, and having a sleepless night because I forgot to hang my scented Chapstick with the food items, so I kept thinking a bear was going to come into the tent to eat it. (food and scented items must be hung in a tree to keep bears away from your food and your tent)...ALL of these things happened on this trip. AND I can't wait to get out and do it all over again!
