Quick Update more to follow

Hey all,

Currently in Yosemite Valley hanging out at Camp 4 trying to find a climbing partner (this is certainly not helping). Just got done with a backpacking course leading a trip of 8th graders through the Jennie Lakes Wilderness in Sequoia/Kings Canyon NP for about 9 days which was  a blast!

After leaving the course I headed North to Yosemite with Kayla, Skyeler, Maddy, Gabe, Aaron and Jakob (all instructors/friends that also lead the course). We managed to kick it the first night in a free Boojum site before moseying on and checking out Mariposa Grove, higher cathedral peak, the rather dry mirror lake and schloobing in the river. Unfortunately last night they were removed by the Park Service for mooching too much, luckily they didn't share the same fate as the fellow in the next site over that was arrested shortly there after for an outstanding warrant for a DUI. It was rather sad to see those fine folks leave and I am once more rollin' solo.

The hand is mostly healed up, perhaps a little tendon restrengthening is in order but there has been relatively little scarring and it's more or less hunky dory to climb on for those that may have been wondering.

Next update I'll provide more stories and perhaps even a few pictures!
