Once upon a time, we had a tr on Mother superior at dusk. I'd already hap my lap and my buddy Chris Raypole (i'm sure some of you know him) was hammering away with the unfamiliar technique, When Carmel wandered by. She sat on the rock above and across and talked him throguh the whole climb.
Chris topped out, she congratulated him and wandered away into the darknesss.
"Who, was that?" asked Chris while still gasping for breath. "are there always pretty girls strolling by to give you beta on hard offwidths, in this place?"

I like that story Jaybro...
seems like there were always those magical moments over the years at Woodson.
Also thanks bvb for the image post of Carmel and Paul back in the day - it's a cool period shot and really shows the "inner" Woodson envro-world; foliage etc.

The stories popping up are great,
Put the word out and some friends are going to try and round up Ron Amick,
It grows and it grows some more, It's not 4:20 but 4/28 ought to be a good time also

Tom Scott is a good dude, please tell him I said hello!
Thanks.
I can't go to the Woodson thing this spring but hope to visit Cali in the fall. I hope it turns out to be a really cool gathering.

You guys should be more careful, you have NO idea who's lurking out here. I got wind of this Apr28 thing, did a little searching and this is what I found. God, sounds like a bunch o' WWII vets drooling on themselves and yammering on about the 'great war'. Been away from crags for years, but me an Curly are Mt Bike fiends, we eat 30 yr olds for breakfast. Legs of iron, arms of rubber! We get Jeff Almodovar out for some well earned abuse now and then. I'm gonna put a fresh coat of shoe goo on my Scats and head for the Ampetheater, listen for some loud thumps to the southwest. BeeHay

Heh, was Brad there that time Paul imploded from all the heckling and marched down from Stonewall and drove home?
Hi Brad, have I even seen you since that time we went climbing in the valley with the Troll, who downed a six pack before you led Highway Star? His phrase, "remember, your belayer is drunk" is one of those quips that has passed into the lexicon of shorthand that Galen and I use to baffle folks.

'Glad to see we're all somewhat aroused for the Woods-On Fest.
Maybe we should set a ruff time to meet at the base of the road, for those who wish to go for like, the full value en masse?
10am?
