From a short while ago. This is climbing related, so just move along, nothing to see here if you are a Pinko looking for a Polly-thread.

brownstone wall has a good climb, right side of the hourglass or some such title. 10+ thin corner on good rock.
it is a long approach; we did the return trip under a full moon.
nice TR mussy.
pretty risky going up there with so few beers IMHO.
love,
your pinko buddy,
tarbousier.

We did Brownstone in February with a late start. Topped out at dusk only to find that the descent was iced over (we were in rock shoes).

Holy Crap Russ, you have some mad writing skills, drinking skills, and rappelling skills to say the least.
Heck, last time I was on that fun route, babe from canada in-tow, having a great time (but no beers to quench my thirst), She hits me with this "attutude" like she's not having any fun on her first multi pitcher. Next thing you know it's "Can we do something Hard? This is boring". So we rap the route and hike back to camp. I sent her off to those short sport routes on the other side of the loop and proceeded to hook up with a nice american girly who was perfectly happy with the long ones...

Russ, I am holding your 8.5 inch log pro that I fleeced off Pratt's Crack hostage. You want it back, or should I re-fix it on another eastside classic?

Hey Pete!
Hold onto that thing! It is a classic. Made from Black Locust from Marty Lewis's house. I remember placing the thing for some photo shoot that Chez had going with Patagonia... testing some new pants or something. Had two of them and beat that one in with the other one. Figured they would last a while... but noooooooo.... What's his nuts (that puker... uh... errr.... Huckaby! ) is rapping down from some other route ( I guess with you? ) and pinches the thing like the next day! No idea where the other one is... a 10.25" one.
Post a pic if you can...

Russ--I was sweatin' like trailer trash in Wonder Valley just reading your fake TR w/ fake photos! Man, you are The Master of StoryEmbellishment (sorry Largo, but the Fish packs way more improbability into his prose). More Russ! More!

Are there any photos of Billy without a beer in his hand?
Don't actually know the answer to this one, just curious.
Where were you when those giant needles were being pulled out of your leg? On the dining room table? Really?
On the table?
Wow!!!
Nice TR again. Loved it like it was my own... 'cept different! And way better.
