Hey Leah! Gosh I have so many great memories climbing and partying with you guys. I always admired Edge's even temperament when climbing with him. Even though he was a way way better climber than I ever was, he always asked me about routes, locations and such. Tell him Booger Roof! Talked with Lonnie about a year ago and he filled me in on Amy and such. Missed her.
Well, nice to see your mom's post here which rekindled all of those good times.

Lynne, how cool to go back in time and remember the old "glory" days-"shoe dopping", the sibling rivalries (yes we were all just and still are big kids), sand bag ratings and wrong beta just for fun. Hensel and I were at Suicide recently (last Friday) and between our two fading memories were able to figure out that we had first climbed there together almost exactly 33 years ago to the day. New Generations and Rebolting Developement were the highlights of the day. There is a vague rumour (not started by me) that there may be another Rubidoux Comp in the near future-of course there would have to be strict rules surrounding what shoes could be used i.e tennis shoes only modified with modern climbing rubber and of course the old sand bag ratings would have to be reworked to inflict even more humbling of the "new gaurd".

So now I know KP is Dimes! Hey you forgot the Slander Master word which was huge bitd.
Hey I bought the Vogel/Gaines Tahquitz&Suicide Book and I knew you were "infamous" but I didn't realize just how "infamous" you were climbing with Hensel. You always did(and still do)take good care of the Leichtfuss Family. Peace KP

Lynne, you have two pics of liebacking at the competition posted on the 5th. I think the top one is me, Mitch Golden. It was my first year climbing and I can tell by the socks and bloated chalkbag. My how we have grown up, or have we?

And another shameless plug for the Stonemaster Tshirt which I really do love. The sleeve is high enough to show my baby muscle. Thank you Mr. Mike.
Seriously, It's been a big leap from the Josh Redux to today, but it's comin'.
And then there's the.....braces on the teeth...only 10 more months....thank God.

midarockjok,
I'm a little slow and relaxed tonight. Can you remind me what the prob. was? Did you need a scanner?
Before you post pics, lets talk. I'm thinking we may want to develope a new Thread?

Hey, Bob D., what a great pic! Was hoping someone would post some Vdub action. That's why I included the earlier one. Any more?
(ps, are you a serious "flower" child...if you get my drift?)

Bluey, I was such a noobie and so drifted at the end. Sorry Folks.
But last Friday in our file safe just found some Truly great BITD slides from a superior photographer. I emailed him to see if I could use them on line. Let's hope. Lynnie

Yo, Setherbugs....Cleaning out the garage. You'll never guess what I found ...your and Amy's hand made Chalk bags with your name stiched into them ....the ones you used on the "That's Incredible" TV show BITD. Did Thea make those?
Love from Mom (still working on getting to Belgium : ))) )
Bluey, I'll try and find the note on who that is.
