shoulder is doing fine...
elbow is doing fine...
wrist is doing fine...
...did something funky to my back in the "Steck-Salathe" Narrows simulator, at the bottom. Well, another thing to rehab!
Thanks Zander,

we thought:
Association of Indoor, Off-Width Cracks: AIOWCs
or maybe
Indoor Off-Width Crack Association (IOWA)
but Garry's is outside, as is Steve's
Artificial Off-Width Crack Association (AOWCA)
or maybe
Wooden Off-Width Crack Association (WOWCA)

My back is better this morning than last night.
However, I seem to have picked up a couple abrasions somehow.
Thanks for the fun.

I don't count abrasions any more, that is just part of the dues payment system...

my elbows have bad sunburn grade abrasions, and I was overall sore enough that a hot bath, making me late for work this morning, really did the trick!

The ultimate grimace is a stern taskmaker, as for the leg bruises, your private life is your own business!

Great times! Much better than going solo. There is also a symbiotic relationship thing goin’. I have never got up the 4 1/4 incher before last night. It was the sessions on Gary’s OW that gave me the "skills" to do it. As soon as we all heal up we’ll do it again. See ya,
Zander
