Anyway, if you find a good babysitter for three years olds, let us know.

The SuperTopo daycare centre for politards and religitards and conspiratards could use some help.

I have three plansBold Text

1--- They sell them harness and leashes for kids. Tye them tie them to trailer hitch on the truck!
2--- stick them in a hual bag and haul the up.
3--- Get two kid hauling packs and climb with them on your backs.

I know you all are just dyin to know how this turned out..........

Cute, sweet kids, wonderful parents, and a really good time had by all. And I did not have to change a single poopy diaper! Good job boys! Good good Mimi and Papa! (Darn good climbers too.)
The largish cat tracks all around the play area in RHV the last day was a bit nerve wracking. Will read ground better next time. :->

They are looking for another sitter Mid May, Eastern Sierra. I probably won't be able to do it, and after the horror fest this thread turned into, they will probably never visit ST again. Too bad, our loss. Seriously.

I missed this thread first time around.
Well done hossjulia. I'll bet you had a ball. And linked with 4 nice people while you were at it.
What a bunch of trash most of the SuperTards were throwing.
Glad it worked out for all concerned.

I don't understand why people are so shocked or upset? Are you idiots?

This makes total sense and is an awesome idea. If I were in JT dirtbagging when this came up, I would have leapt at the opportunity. Play with some kids in the desert, scramble on rocks, have fun, make money on a rest day?


The parents want to climb, better the kids are out playing in the sun than left at home to watch TV.


Bunch of paranoid, uptight pain in the asses some of you...Sometimes you psycho's make me feel Ill. People are so F*#KING paranoid these days. Every scrapped knee is going to lead to death, and kidnappers wait around every corner in your minds.

I see this all the time. Padding on the corner of every square cut object in the house, baby guard on the stairs for a 6 year old, door knob protectors on the front door so they can't get out. I see these kids as kids in the home at one job, and as kids in schools at another job.


Make me want to pull my hair out. But I learn a lot looking at you, I learn how NOT to be when I am a parent.

Kudos the OP and HossJulia. Getting after it with kids. Good for you!
