When it's Christmas time...we think about birthdays.

The Christmas season is crazy for our family.  
3 birthdays in December
2 birthdays in January
....that's 5 birthdays in 32 days. 

Heidi's birthday was earlier this month...and to celebrate, she wanted to go rock climbing.   


We climbed a very fun climb at Tollhouse Rock named the Tollhouse Traverse with a few variations mixed in.    


We have been climbing together for over a third of our lives.  We have climbed all over the world on many different types of rock....but California's granite has to be some of the best out there!  



Something I love about Heidi is that she has never been "scared" of climbing.  For her, the antidote to fear is curiosity.  She is a learner and has a insatiable appetite to acquire new skills.  This has made climbing a life-long pursuit for for the both of us.  



Tollhouse Traverse follows a beautiful sweeping crack in the Sierra foothills high above California's central valley below.  





That evening we changed clothes and went on a date.  Climbers by day, dinner dates by night! ...and no, we didn't shower...we aint' got time for all that!


Another year
These are good days!
