Brian sending Domino Theory

Brian and I spend our Saturday afternoon at Castle Rock. We first warmed up at the Magoos area with about one thousand climber. We soon moved to the Graveyard area with Steve who was visiting from Utah.

Apple Tart

Apple tart with Calvados, so much better than pecan pie.

Thomas invited Eddie, Andrea and us for the Thanksgiving dinner. He prepared the delicious turkey, Andrea brought the wine, Eddie the pumpkin pie and we brought the breads and pecan tart.

Thomas is taking care of the turkey.

Eddie and Thomas are best friend.

Miam, miam.

Nice table.

Claire's new car

Since your 1992 Toyota Tercel was giving up after 200 000 miles, Claire has bought her new car, a Subaru all wheels drive, which should come handy when the snow comes.

Twister Sister ABS contest

Benoit and I have registered to the ABS (American Bouldering Series). Benoit participated at one contest already, at Planet Granite (Sunnyvale). We went for the second contest at Mountain view. Since I needed to be there, I also climbed in the Master category.
Lucas did not want to watch us, so He decided to climb as well. He must have been the youngest competitor there.

The contest turned out to be fun. They put more than 160 routes for all abilities, the more difficult the climb, the higher the score. We will get the ranking soon (I'll keep you updated).


Lucas both relaxed and composed while following my indications.

Benoit looking strong.


Big holds, big moves, just what I like.
